Difference Between Interest and Discount. Mr. Weed was once pestered quite strongly by Hamberger to buy a gold watch worth $160 and while he was in company with a.bank president of that day named Jacob Bellinger. Mr Weed's answer was that he had no money. Hamberg persisted that Bel linger would lend it, Finally Mr. Weed said that he did not expect to be able to pay for a watch like that for at least twenty years, and he figured that the interest on $150 for twenty years would make a principal and interest total of $400. Hamberger agreed, and then Mr. Weed said: "Now, Hamberger, I will tell you what I will do. I will give you my note for $400 for the watch, payable in twenty years, and Ballenger here will discount it for you at simple in terest." He had meantime winked at Bellenger, who nodded his head in acquiescence, and the offer was promptly accepted. The note was drawn and the watch transferred, when Bellenger was asked to dis- count the paper. He figured awhile and then said: "Well, the discount at simple interest amounts to $100 more than the face of the note. You can pay me the $100 any time you like, Hamberger, and meanwhile I will keep the note." The scene that followed was both exciting and ludicrous, but Hamberger was finally convicted that he had been sold, and had for his experience simply a clear knowledge of the difference between discount and interest. Mr. Weed kept the watch for about a week, while the joke lasted, and then re turned it to the peddler who was overjoyed to get it back. Mrs. Surratt 's Execution. Special to Baltimore Sun. Washington, May 24. Rev. J. A. Walter, pastor of St. Patrick's church, this city, has prepared and presented to the Catholic Historical Society of New York a paper on Mrs. Surratt, which he thinks will throw new light on the character, trial and execution of that unfortunate woman. It will be read before the society tomorrow night. Father Walter was pastor of St. Patrick's church when President Lincoln was assassinated, and Mrs. Surratt was a member of his congre gation. On the very night that Booth fired the fatal shot she was at Father Walter's church, and that circum stance alone, in the mind of the cler gyman, was partial proof that she knew nothing of the plans prepared by the assassins at her house. He became interested in her case, was her confessor and adviser after her arrest as well as before, and did everything in his power, both by. appeals to President Johnson and by bitter de nunciations of the unjust measures adopted by the Government in its prosecution, to save her from the gal lows. Although the occurrence which Fa ther Walter describes in his paper oc curred so long ago, he still feels fresh, ly and keenly the injustice which led to Mrs. Surratt's execution. In speak ing of the matter to a Sun represen tative he said: "If President John son had been a man of courage the execution would not have taken place. He simply acted in accord ance with public clamor, and sigued the death warnut without even read ing the testimony on which the wo man had been convicted. I went to him and told him tbat I had read ev ery line of the testimony, and that there was not enough evidence to bam; a cat on: that 1 did not ask a pardon for Mrs. Suratt, nor a commu tation of sentence, but merely a re prieve for ten days, in order that I might prove her innocence, but Pres ideut Johnson did not have courage enough to comply with my request He feared if he did so he wonld be ac cused of commending the deed that had put him in the presidential chair So he consigned an innocent woman to a shameful death in order to es cape the adverse criticism of a fren zied populace. The whole trial was an outrage, and there is no doubt that the Government resorted to fraudu lent measures in order to obtain a conviction. "Mr. Bradley, who defended John Surratt, had among his papers a tel egraph book showing that John Sur ratt was in Elmira on the umht of April 13, yet when a search was made for the hotel register, that would have shown his presence there on that date, it had disappeared, and not until a year ago was I able to ascertain that the Government had taken possession of it, and had withheld it in order to deprive the prisoners of the benefit of this bit of evidence. "John Surratt was allowed to es cape a trial because the Government knew it had no case against him, and if he were innocent, hi6 mother was also. It has been charged that I for bade Mrs. Surratt speaking, but this is not true. She declared her inno cence up to the time of her death, and beyond this declaration she had nothing to say." Public Schools in the South. Baltimore Sun. The Philadelphia Times thinks the popular delusion fostered and kept aflame by northern partisan organs, that the public school system receives but scant support and encouragement in southern States, has received its quietus from the census in 1890. The idea, says the Times, turns out to be not only a myth but " a nositive 7 A- wrong to a great and progressive sec tion of the union." From the figures quoted by the Times it appears that Mississippi has made a gain of 47:90 per cent.; Texas, 133:15 per cent : North Carolina, 27:08; South Carolina, 50:89; Virginia, 05:06; West Virginia, 34:42. Not a single northern tn.t. adds the Times, shows anything like that rate of increase. On the con trary, New Hampshire sustains a loss of 7:51 per cent. Maine 7:38 and Ver mont one of 10:42 per cent. In the line of growth in the public school enrollment Connecticut has a 6:68 rer cent, gain, Massachusetts 16:33. New York 1:38. Ohio 5:98. Pennsylvania 1:59, Iowa, 15:98. It was not to be expected, of course, that the North ern states would show heavy gains, as their school system has fully de veloped for years, but the large gains in the south are nonetheless gratify ing as showing remarkable progress in growth of the public schools and in popular appreciation of their value. Mr. Julian S. Carr was in Richmond Va., last Saturday. He was called upon by influential gentlemen and asked about the reported deal be tween the Durham Cooperative Co., and 1 hie American Tobacco Co,. Mr. Carr said that no sale had taken place. An offer had been made to the Amer ican Tobacco Co. but had not been accepted. This seems to be the real status of the case. Two negroes robbed H.
