W, 1881, will be a memorable day in the his- toty of Wall street The lull that followed Sherman's announcement to purchase bonds was followed by a tall that bordered on a panic. All through the afternoon stocks fell. The excitement was intense. On Wall, Broad and New streets small groups of excited men gathered discussing the situation. On al­ most every face there was anxious expression, and many a hand that took tape trembled with Cteitement- The conflict between the banks ill iiab Government seemed to favor the former, for accordingly as the banks received their checks for bonds' that they sold to the Government, just so so an were they deposited with the Sub-Treasurer to retire circulation.

It was the intention to resort to Conger's tactics to defeat the motion, but four Re­ publicans voted with the Democrats, and the Speaker also cast his vote, making just a quorum.

In the course of seven hours he secured one member, but meanwhile several others had escaped and gone to the President's reception. They were brought back, or returned oi their own accord, and their offense was condoned.

Of the increase Wisconsin get* $100,000, Michigan $31,00.), Minne­ sota $25,000, indiuiiu#40,000; $25,000 g<>es to improve the harbor of Vu-ksbiiig, and $35,000 to improve the Missouri river from Kansas City to its mouth. The bill as amended was repotted to the Senate. The greater part of the executive session of the Senate was consumed in debate concerning the Alabama Attorneyship. 11 was reported ad­ versely by the Judiciary C-oinmittee, but was finally confirmed by a small majority. The House of Representstives remained in session all Thursday night without coming tosn understand­ ing on the Apportionment b 11.

The bill was considered, and, at tho motion of Mr. Collins, postponed. The hour for the consideration of the proposi­ tion to make the pav of the members cf the General Assembly $760 for tho full term hav­ ing arrived, Mr. Murphy took the floor and made a long speech in favor of his pro­ posed amendment. The matter was discussed at length, and finally the whole subject was laid ou the table by a vote of 69 to 49. Hade Bald. Terror, it seemd, can take off the hair, as well as turn it. The Gazette des Hospitaux gave an account not long ago of a singular case of alopecia. A girl, aged 17, who had always en­ joyed good health, had one day a nar­ row escape from being crushed by a floor giving way beneath her. She was •erv much frightened, and the same night began to complain of headache and chillis. The next morning she felt restless, and had itching of the scalp. During the few following days she steadily improved, with the exception of the itching. One day, in combing her hair, she noticed that it came out in great quantities. . Three days later she was perfectly bald. Her general health was good, but her head continued bald, and was still so when seen two years utter by the reporter. ̂ Henry Wilson. The late Henry Wilson was a consist­ ent teetotaler, and once gave at Wash­ ington a dinner without wine to W. E. Porster, now Chief Secretary for Ireland, and another member of Parliament who was also visiting this country. Among the other guest# were one or two mem­ bers of the Cabinet and several foreign Ministers, Senators, Representatives, and journalists. Mr. Z. L. White records that he was among the early arrivals, and that Mr. Wilson drew him aside and told him that he had ordered that no wine should be served. " I have told Mr. Wormlev," said the Vice President, "to prepare as good a dinner as he could--to spare no expense--and to fur-f nish the finest brands of cigars, for J don't want my English guests to think that parsimony has caused me to omit the wines," and then he asked his guest if he did not think he had done rightly. During this dinner it was remarked that there were thirteen at the table; and Mr. White adds: " Before the next winter Mr. Wilson himself lay dead in the Capitol." DEATH OF SENATOR CARPENTER. WASHINGTON, Feb. 24. Senator Matt H. Carpenter breathed his last in this city this morning at 9:30, surrounded by his family, who have tenderly nursed him through his long illness, by his home physician, Dr. Fox of Milwaukee, his local physician, and by Representative Williams, of Wisconsin. Dr. Paret, of the Episcopal Church of this city, read the service for the dying as the life of the late Senator slowly ebbed away. From the hour that Dr. Fox arrived here, yesterday morning, his rapid trip from Milwaukee, all hope was abandoned. Dr. Fox, who knew Mr. Carpenter's condition so well, and who, one year ago, had told him that his disease was in­ curable, instantly decided that the hours of the sick man were numbered, and informed his family that his deatu might be expected in a few hours. Mr. Carpenter was not himself made acquainted with his condition, although it was evident, from numerous indications dur­ ing thti day, that he kuew that the hour of his fate had come. During the early part of the evening he was fully conscious, and recog­ nized his family. After 9 o'clock he sank into a semi-unconscious condition, from which, how­ ever, he would arouse whenever remarks were addressed to him. Occasionally a member of his family would seek to obtain from him some sign of recognition, and the sufferer, by word, or look, or pressure of the hand, was able to respond to the last appeals of love. About 1 o'clock this morning Mr. Carpenter seemed to be sinking. His pulse almost ceased, and it was thought that the supreme moment had arrived. He rallied soon after that, however, and wa* less unconscious until 4 o'clock. At that hour his wife, his Bon --a lad or 14--and his daughter, a young woman of 20, were gathered about his bedside. The physicians had indicated that the remain­ ing hours of t'je husband and father were few. The death-pall was settling down upou the chamber, yet there was no outward demonstra­ tion of grief. Anxious to secure another recog-* nition, tpe stricken wife asked: "Matt, do you know me ?" The dying man aroused himself for a moment, and feebly answered: '• Of course, I do." • These were his last words on earth. From that time until the hour of his decease, he remained in painless unconsciousness. A little before 9:30 tne physician announced that the final moment was soon to come. The clergyman, Dr. Paret, then solemnly read the dying service, and as it was concluding tne spirit of Matthew H. Car­ penter passed from earth. It was character­ istic of the wonderful intellect of the man that his head died last. His physicians say that, contrary to the usual course with such a disease, his mind was clear to the last moment. It had been evident to Mr. Carpenter's friends for many months, if he would not realize it himself, that he was stricken with that terrible malady called Bright's dis­ ease. The stalwart form had become, so wasted that his clothes hung loosely about him. There was an ashy pallor on his face. The voice had grown so weak that its silvery notes rose very feebly to the galleries. About one year ago he consulted with his physician in Wisconsin, Dr. Fox, who an­ nounced to him the sad fact that his malady was Bright's disease, and that it had advanoed so far tiiat his case was incurable. "From that hour, 'said his physician yesterday, " he was a man under sentence. Mr. *Car|>enter could not or would not believe it. He pur­ chased many medical Dooks relating to that sub­ ject, and studied the disease with the thorough­ ness which characterized all his investigations. He caused analysis to be made, and, when cer­ tain symptoms-; on some days were wanting, would decide that his physicians were mistaken, and that he hu a new hold on life. He remained in torrid Washing­ ton all the last summer. The physicians that he had consulted in New York advised him not to remove from a warm climate, through fear that the change to a cooler tem­ perature might result in a reaction. That would prove injurious. Accordingly, through the heat and malaria and summer torture here, he remained housed during the daytime, devot­ ing himself assiduously to his extensive law practce, and at night, when the temperature was more moderate, riding about the streets in an open carriage to get a breath of good air. Winter came and he was in his seat in Congress at the beginning, but he was seldom there afterward. He seemed to be conscious of his changed appearance. He was especially sensitive at remarks about his health. He did not wish the report to go out that he was not a strong man. He was reluctant to admit that he was losing his hold upon life, and possibly his absence from the Senate dur­ ing this session was due in part to the fact that he did not care to enter into a debate which would show his increasing feebleness. Three weeks ago he took a severe cold, and had an at­ tack of pneumonia. It was then feared that he would not recover, but he was able to go to his office for some days, when again he was strick­ en down, and in that last illness he died. Mr. Carpenter was born at Moretown, Vt., in 1824, and adopted by Gov. Dillingham. For two years he was a cadet at West Point, whence he went into the law office of Rufus Choate, in Boston. He married the daughter of his foster-father and removed to Wis­ consin, settling at Beloit In 1848, removing to Milwaukee ten years later. At the outbreak of the war he left the Democratic party and became an active Republican. In 1869 he was elected to the United States Senate, and became President pro tern, of that bodv. In 1879 he wa® chosen to succeed Senator Howe. He had as imutttsu*) on his life of •65.000. Meteors and Aerolites. A comparison of all the facts which are known respecting shooting-stqrs. det­ onating meteors and aerolites leads to the conclusion that they are all minute bodies revolving like the comets in orbits about the sun, and are encountered by the earth in its orbital motion. The visible path of aerolites is somewhat nearer to the earth's surface than that of ^ ordinary shooting-stars, a result which may be ascribed to their greater density, which causes, therefore, greater resistance. These three classes of bodies exhibit alternate periods of maximum and mini­ mum abundance, and the times of maxi­ mum foi the several classes correspond somewhat with each other, indicating that these bodies are collected in groups, and the three classes of bodies are grouped in a somewhat similar manner. The August meteors move in orbits which require more than a century to complete, and comprehend bodies differ- ing (greatly in size and probably also in density. Their magnitudes range from comets whose diameter is perhaps 100,- 000 miles to minute atoms, which, in a single second, are dissipated by the heat resulting from their collision with our atmosphere. Their density ranges from that of metallic iron to earthy bodies having but feeble cohesion, which are into fine dust by the heat of collision with our atmosphere ; and it is possible that the rarest of them may consist of solid or liquid matter in a state of minute subdivision, like a clouU of dust or smoke. The periodic meteors of November probably comprehend bodies having an equal range of magnitude, and perhaps also of density.--Prof. JLoomis. THB estimated population oi the United Kingdom in 1880 was 84,505,043; increase in that year being 349,917. From 1840 to 1878 7.617.935 emigrated from the United Kingaom. Between the years 1840 and 1879, inclusive, 5,226,459 persons emigrated to the United States.

I did not hev much hopes, but I did ruther expeck that there wood be some kind uv a fracas raised which wood delay the countin uv the vote, and 'that, possibly, some informality wood occur which wood justify us in declarin Hancock dooly electid, and, if we didn't aeet him, would give us a eggscoose for howlin frod for another foqf yeers, and give the Dimocrisy suthin. to stand on. I hed a hope that our Dimocratic members wood find some way to raise a rumpus, and derange the bizness uv the kentrv, so that we cood pint to the Re- publikin members ez obstructionists and disturbers. I hed a hope that confidense mite be destroyed, and hell raised in some way, that in the gineral derange­ ment the Dimocrisy mite hev some sort of a show, and that follerin the rumpus, hard times mite ensoo, hard enuff to give us a possibility uv electin a jus- tis uv the peese in a Northern State. But that dream is over. The Demo­ cratic members submitted to the will uv Republicans as meekly ez lambs. They didn't _ howl about the constitooshin, they didn't object to Any countin', they didn't put in no claim uv frod, and they didn't do nothin. They submitted to the majority and let Garfield be counted in without a struggle. This settles the Diiuocratic party. We hevn't the slightest Bhow for next year, or four years from now. We hev nothin to go on. Wheat is bearin a good price, and corn is about the same. The farmer liez a good markit for his perdoose, and the mechanic's hammer is heerd in the land. Wages are good and work is plenty. Manooiakters is boom- in, and the operatives are a chuckin money into savins banks, and they hev money to chuck. There never wuz ez many railroads bildin, colleckshins wuz never so good, and biznis is on a solid bssip. And wat is more disgustin, the money is good, the people don't kick about re- sumpshen, but hev all settled down quietly and entirely satisfied with the currency. Wat is the Dimocrisy goin to do un­ der these distressin circumstances ? Wat kind uv a show hev we when ther ain't no disasters to pint to ez the result uv Radikel rool ? Wat hev we got to go onto ? Nothin. Ther ain't no yoose in demandin a change when the workinman hez a bank account, and the merchant ain't liunkerin for change when he is sellin lots nv goods and gittin his money for em. It is we, the Dimocrisy, ez wants a change, and that is wat, with­ out some providenshl disaster, we Bhan't git. Ther is wher the Dimekratic members wuz remiss in ther dooty. Ef they hed made a flte on the Presidenshl count, and hed throwed the kentry into con- fooshn, we should hev hed suthin' open to us. They mite hev distroyed confi­ dence and checkt enterprise, and made things onsartin to a degree that, wood hev made trouble in the spring and throwd a lot uv men out uv work, and prest things to a degree that wood hev given us ground to stand on. But that opportoonity ie lost forever, and we are lost with the opportoonity. Garfield will be President, the good times will continyoo, raleroads will con- tinYoo to be built, and farmers will hev a stiddy markit for ther perdoose, and mechanics and labrers will continyoo to hev work, and at good wagis, and be r'd in good money,, and everybody will satisfied. And, to make it wuss, there hez bin so much snow this Winter that the chances are that there will be a good winter-wheat crop, which will finish us, onless weevle gits into it and the corn crop is a failyoor. These things never happin when we want em. To spite the Dimocrisy I make no doubt that next yeer the crops will all be good, and that ther will be sum disturbance in Europe which will make a good market for our surplus. Nacher, ez well ez everything else, is agin the Dimocrisy; why, I hev no hope even, uv a epidemic next yeer. I don't suppose ther will be eny colery in the North, nor nuthin uv the sort. We hev yeller fever at the South, but ez this seckshun is solidly Dimocratic, it don't do the Dimocrisy eny good. Well, I kin stand it. Some way will be purvided for me. My wants are few, and I kin live without the postoffice. Corn-bred is cheep here, and good- nachered strangers come into Baa corn's to keep me in likker. Sometimes when the roads is bad the intervals atween drinks is ruther long, but Bascom some­ times unbends and asks me, and some­ times he gives me a refresher, and goes thru the moshens uv chargin it. I shel live somehow, even ef the country is prosperous, and the Democri- sv are kep out ov power. The provi­ dence that notes the fall uv a sparrer will brood over me. Let the kentry never mind me, but go on and prosper. Ef the kentry kin stand it I kin. PETROLEUM V. NASBY. « (P. M. nevermore.) The Southern Blacks. How many million times before the Rebellion was the North assured by the slave-holders that if the blacks were emancipated they soon would dwindle away, die out, and become extinct, as they were mere children iu intellect, and could not take care of themselves ? We were told the same thing for the first live years after the war, and until the census of 1870 disproved the assertion. But even after that is was asserted that the mortality among the blacks was frightful, and that colored families had ceased to be large. But now comes the census of 1880, showing that the per cent, of increase during the past decade is greater than it was at any time be­ tween the abolition of the African slave- trade in 1808 and the abolition of slavery during the Rebellion. What have the ex-slave masters to say to this fact ? How do they account for the rapid growth of a race sure to die out if made free ? The census bulletins that have been is­ sued give us the number of blacks in all of the old slave States excepting Texas. We now have the material for determining approximately the extent and rate of increase oi' the colored pop­ ulation during the past ten years and for making comparisons with preceding years. The increase by States from 1870 to 1880 is shown by the following state­ ment: staum. • , ism Alabama............ .475,510 Arka&M*.12*i,lSS De)»wi««................... !H,W Fkrin Georgia .54§,H® Kentucky. ..832,210 l.»u«««k 9M,MO 'Mas-vtond •« Mississippi. .444,201 ."MTJ Nortfc Carolina... •*S®9MW® eouth Carolina. vSSSrr.;;.

This shows during these ten years the enormous increase of 1,-- 401,888, or more than 33 per cent. Add­ ing Texas, and the colored population of the South now exceeds 6,0(X),000. lit 1h? North the blacks number 5C0.000. The above fifteen States increased from 2,688,736 in 1840 to 3,369,934 in 1850 and 4,018,380 in 1860. This was at the rate of 25 per cent, during the former decade and 10 per cent, dining the latter or an average of 22 per cent, for the last twenty years of slavery. Comparing this with the 33 per cent, of the past de­ cade the rate of increase is shown to be- very much greater in freedom ind peace-* than it was in slavery and peace. The whit© population in the States, above named has increased from 8,813.- 877 in 1870 to 11,259,718 in 1880, or less than 28 per cent. During the past ten years the colored population in the South has increased at a considerably greater rate than the white. Who will say after this that the blacks of the South need masters to keep the race from becoming extinct?--Chicago Tribune. An Ancient Instrument. A writer in a periodical (tailed Hard­ ware says: The needle is one of the- most ancient instruments of which we have any record. The modern needle is. a pointed instrument having an eye, and. is used for carrying a thread, some kind of fabric or other material. It is prob­ able, however, that the needles of those people who lived in very ancient times- had ho eyes, as instruments of bone, which were most likely used lor that purpose, are found in the caves that were inhabited by ancient people of France, and the needles of ancient Egypt, which are described as being of bronze, do not appear to have been made with eyes. Some writers are of opinion that in place of the eye a circular depression waft- made in or near the blunt end, in which the thread was buried. Pliny describes the needles of bronze which were used by the Greeks and Romans. These in­ struments have also been found in the ruins of Herculaneum. The first account that history gives of the manufacture of needles is that they were made at Nuremburg in 1760, and while the date of their first manufacture iu England is in doubt, it is said to have commenced in that country about 1543 or 1545, and. it is asserted that the art was practiced, by a Spanish negro or native oi India, who died without disclosing th© secret of his process. During the reign of Queen Elizabeth this industry was revived', and has been continued ever since. Christopher Greening and a Mr. Damer established needle factories at Long Crendon, near Redditch, in England, in 1650, and these were soon followed by- other London needle makers. Redditch. is still the center of needle manufacture. The eyes of the earliest needles were square. Many unsuccessful attempts- were made to bring out the so-called "drill eyed" needles before they were- finally introduced in 1826. Two years later the burnishing machine in which tho eyes of needles are polished was completed. In this machine the needles- are strung on a steel wire, which is caused to revolve rapidly and thereby impart a beautiful finish to the eye. The process of hardening needles was- for many years accomplished by casting them, while red hot, into cold water. By this means a large proportion of them. became crooked, and the services of a large number of workmen were required to straighten them. In 1840 the substi­ tution of oil in the place of water took place, and this caused a large number of the workmen to be thrown out of employ­ ment, a riot took place at Redditch, and the introducer of the oil process wa«- driven out of the town. The machinery for making needles has now been brought to such a state of perfection that, from the coil of steel wire to the finished needle, the machines used perform their various operations in a manner that may be said to be almost automatic. Barrett. A newspaper fiend of the Boston Times interviewed Lawrence Barrett. Among other statements the philoso­ pher tragedian said: "We cannot al­ ways eat mustard; these frothy novelties- that are now attracting attention are the ragout, while the legitimate is the good old-fashioned roast beef that gives life as well as enjoyment. I do not know of any legitimate actor or star that cannot at all times make a com­ fortable living. I have been traveling- for seventeen years and I have not had a losing season yet. During the panic of 1873 it was the novelties that suf­ fered ; I found that people would get a- few dollars together to patronize the le­ gitimate, and allow the novelties to languish for support. The legitimate never dies ; an interest may be fostered for a novelty, but it is short-lived, while Shakspeare and his followers can always attract paying houses. No, sir, it is not on the wane. • THE MARKETS.
