There were forty people on board, and the loas of Me in estimated, at this writing, at between twenty-five and thirty-five- Among the lost were the wife and three children of Oapt. Kountz, a noted steamboat owner. Robert Kelly, the seoond engineer, remained at his poet and was cut off by the flames. Memphis dispatches give the following particulars of the disinter t The (ioltien City approached the city near the foot of Beale street and signaled for a land­ ing. Just then the boat was discovered to be on fire. She was directed to shore notwith­ standing, and ran into a number of coal-flats. The fire sprerd with the rapidity of lightning almost, and 800 barrels of oil fed it into a lury in a moment. The boat tried to attach itself to the city dump-boat, but could not succeed in doing so. The flames began in the center of the boat, and spread both ways, and people rushed pell-mell out of their sleep and jumped over upon the dump-boat and coal flats. Efforts to attacli the boat proved unavailing, and slie drifted away down the rjver, a thing of glittering splendor. Quite a number of people were on board, and as the whole boat was a mass of flame, fed by the oil, they must all have been burned to deatn. It was unlike most fires. It was so quick and deadly in its results that women did not have time to shriek nor men to call for help. Everybody was paralyzed with horror. A great crowd soon collected on tlip river banks and watched the fire. Ail sorts of rumors were soon spread about the disaster. The loss of life was variously reported from twenty to 100 souls. The fire war caused by the captain of the watch, who went through the engine room to see if aiiv one was in it. Accidentally the bottom dropped from his lamp into some hemp, which caught fire immediately and spread rapidly, and iu al­ most an inhtant the boat was doomed. Those who escaped had to do so immediately, and they were not very particular how they got away. One individual was seen to leap over upon a coal fiat in his night shirt, holding his clothes in his hands. When he reached terra firma he was •0 possessed with fear that he ran away up the levee with the speed of a Kentucky thorough­ bred. When last seen he had stopped and was pulling on his pants. One gentleman aboard, who had two or three ladles and the same number of children under his charge, pitched the children over upon the float, know­ ing that they never could get off otherwise, and then jumped over with the ladles. Several persons who were about to he left jumped into the water and were pulled ashore, or swam ashore, or were drowned. The condition of those who escaped with their lives was pitiable in the ex­ treme. The women had but scant clothing on, and the men were no better off. Many of them had sustained pecuniary loss. One gentleman sat alone by himself in his night clothes, shiver­ ing and crying. His wife and children wero lost He seemed to be totally unconscious of his plight. For some time so great was the excuement ihat no attention was paid to him; but a kind-hearted lady living on Shelby street sent him her husband's dressing gown. As the boat was carried away by the current it waa noticed that several women and children in their night clothing stood in the stern, with the alternative of rushing into the flames or Jumping overboard. As no one saw them fall over it ia supposed that they were literally burned to death. Additional fuel was furn­ ished the flames by several tiers of oakum which were consumed like tinder. Those on board hardly knew how they indefinitely postponed. OPPOSITION to the reform of the Span­ ish tariff led to strikes in various towns, sod many mills have been closed. A mob in Bar­ celona attempted to stop trains and waa filed upon by the military Secretary Hunt lias instructed Lient.

Their heads are endangered. awakened. The main point waa how to escape. Tbe flames had the completest possession of the boai in five min­ utes, and fearful sheets of flame shot into the air, while immense clouds of smoke enveloped the aoene. The one rope holding the boat waa unable to stand the strain, and the Golden City began gradually to be drawn into the current, Down the nver she floated, furnishing to thoao on shore a picture of unrivaled and fearful beauty. The waters gleamed in crimson, and the Arkansas ehore was diatinctly drawn in red. The ateamer did not make a long trip to her doom. A trail of fire followed bar close to shore, then out a short distance into the current. All the time the boat was burning furiously and the fixe was eating its way to the water. The boat drifted off beyond President's island, some 800 or AW Yards, and when within 100 yards of the Tennessee shore the vessel, with its popr, dead bodies, its cargo and everything, was tmpriaoned in the waves, and the fierce ele­ ments were soothed in th© twinkling of te eye. It is tke genemi impression that those . who died were suffocated to death rather than horned. Afterward those who passed the place saw only a part of the debris and a, few chairs upon it. That was the only evidence of the wreck. It waa a wonder to most people that there was not an explosion, and the only way this can be aooonnted for is that the steam pipe burst, and thus allowed the steam to escape. Thl moat horrible feature of the lire was the death of children. It is supposed that several ..others in addition to those reported were losk The little onea were kindly lent a helping hand. The struggle of all classes to get from the boat resulted in great confusion. Agre&t num­ ber of those on board had to leave without making their toilets. Stowed circus was taken aboard at Yidalia, L*,.: and six cages of animals and birda, to­ gether with the ticket and band wagons, tents and horses, were lost. Marion Purcell, one of the pilota, was in the clerk's office when the alarm first Bounded, he i untied through the cabin, bursting in state­ room doora, awakening passengers. So rapidly did the flames spread that within live minutes after discovering the fire, winch broke amid­ ships, the after part of the steamer was all ablaze. Those that were saved had to flee in their mght-ciothes. When the burning steamer touched the wharf tbe fire communicated to the coal-fleet and the tug Oriole, which also burned. i As near as can be ascertained there were twenty-three ladies aboard the ill-fated steam­ er, but two of whom, as ^sr as known, were saved. Felix Lehman, who was a passenger, says there was a merry party aboard, and nearly all the passengers remained up until midnight, They had one or two gentlemen aboard who played the piano, and tbey entertained the pas- aengers With music and singing. He was awakened by having his state-room burs ted in, and heard the cry of " Fire!" Seizing his clothes he ran forward and reached the barge juut ia time, as the next minute the vessel floated down stream.

THE Andre monument at Tappan, N. Y., has again been mutilated. A few nights ainoe a loud explosion startled Tappan and Tarrytown. Investigation proved that some­ thing was wrong at the Andre monument, and upon going to the spot it was found that a piece about two feet long and weighing perhaps 100 pounds had been blown off the shaft by using dynamite. A hole liad been drilled in the stone, rather unskillfully. beginning at the bot­ tom of the shaft and working upward. A skitled workman with the same amount of la­ bor and material would have blown the shaft all to pieces. The position of the monument remains unchanged, and the inscriptions are uninjured.

The Catholic Provincial Council, which met in Cincinnati recently, prepared a lengthy pas­ toral letter to be read in all the churches. It begins with a review of the progress of religion since tbe last council, twenty years ago, and congratulates the chur*h on the transition from the mission epoch to a condition of fixity. It then goes on to speak of the necessity of obedience to authority: holds that all men are not equal, and that men ordained to rule as Kings, magistrates, Bishop, and priests have rights which subjects do not; laments the dis­ position to try God before the court of human reason, and aays no man has a right to teach falsehood or to change a jot or tittle of the law of God. It is very outspoken on the subject of labor unions. It says a man's labor is his own, as much as the gold of the rich man, and he has a right to sell as he pleases at a fair price, and, so long as men accede to others the same free­ dom tney claim for themselves, there is no sin In labor banding together for self-protection, but labor unions are liable to fail, and can't be sustained. When they attempt to force a man to join a union, or to work for a price fixed by a union, Catholics cannot be partners in any attempt to coerce others against their just rights, nor to do injury to tbe person or prop­ erty of others. The letter has a long paragraph on the news­ papers, in which it specifically denounces what it calls the illegitimate means used by the Irish World in its advocacy of the cause of Ireland, but adds : '• We are ready to co-operate with the Bishops of Ireland in any legitimate effort to ameliorate the present unhappy condition of the Iris-h people." The letter condemns much of the modern church music, and says tbe Gregorian Chant is the recognized form. It directs that all music that savors of the sensuous and the profane the theater or the opera, shall be excluded from ctK ira, a#,*lso all music that attracts tho attention of the people trom the altar to the choir. Much ia said condemnatory of aecret%iocie- ties, especially such as have a religious hier­ archy or form of liturgy. Reverting to the subject of authority, the letter savs : "It is not Catholic doctrine that ail power comes from the people, and that rul­ ers do not exercise authority as their own, but aa intrusted to them by tbe people. Tbe Cath­ olic doctrine is that tne grant of power is not given by the people, but they only designate who is to wield it Aa to the priest, the people are commanded to seek the law from his lips, and in all matters of civil life apperiaiuiug to fsith and mora!" the priest has the right to speak and the people are required to listen. This doctrine, it is said, may be unpopular with modem liberalism, but tbat does not prove it untrae." r m>r • lot of farmers who had bean listen­ ing to a railroad land agent's praise of Arkansaa Valley noil, at last asked him sarcastically, if there was any thing thai wouldn't grow there.

MISSISSIPPI FLOODg. Tbe Waters Slowly Aballaf. The Chicago Times correspondent telegraphs from Helena, Ark., aa follows : "Every heart seems weary and saddened by the distress that surrounds the city. There is nothing thought of except the relief of the sufferers, ami every one here has done his part in succoring and helping the afflicted. The stratus remain un­ changed in this section. The water falls very slowly, contrary to the expectations of everv one ; and it is feared that it will remain np some weeks longer. itf lias become a monotonous sight to every eye. Commissioner Mangum cannot fulfill all tho demands coming from individuals and from the mass. In Desha county the sufferings seem» to be very great. These advices come from Arkansas City, where the greater portion of distress is situated. But few supplies have reached them, the greater number being dis­ tributed other points. Rations are eagerly prayed for, as the suffering is great, and help must reach tbem from some quarter. A arentleman in conversation told .the writ^ that near him lived about 1,8TO people witheut food or money, and unable to help themselves in the present state of affairs. He was then on his way to Mem­ phis to see what arrangements he could make to alleviate the condition of bis neighbors. From all parts the same accounts of misery are told. Cattle and mules are dying, and have died by hundreds. Hum-in beings and ani­ mals are housed together,, the humans willing to share their very last with their horses and other animals, not only from affection, but for the intrinsic value they set upon them. A gentleman who has visited the distressed regions remarked that the dogs looked more prosperous and in better con­ dition than the people themselves. The gnats are becoming a greater pest every day. They are having a most fatal effect and will continue for some time. It is as great a calamity aa the flood. Lieuts. Satterlee and Richarda visited the overflowed region around this place. They have already viaited other portions of the flooded country, and say that tho horrora are not in any way exaggerated. They have es­ timated that the number of people requiring to be fed is : In Phillips county, 6,000 ; Monroe county, 600; Chicot county, 3,000; Desha county, 3,500.' These gentlemen give most graphic pictures of what they have aeen ana expe­ rienced. Lieut. Richards left for Mississippi county, and Lieut. Satterlee for Lee county, to make peraonal inveatigation of diatribution of supplies. In Laconia'Circle, a particularly rich and flourishing section, great suffering exista. Houses are being used for Mie refuge of Doth cattle and human beings. The steamer Dick Jones, just returned trom Sunk Lands, reports tne horrors more and more terrible. The people were still eating drowned carcasses and some few a little boiled corn."* A St. Louis dispatch aays : "About $8,000 in money and large amounts of provisions and clothing have been raised here for the benefit of the overflow sufferers on the Mississippi river. Capt Lee, in charge of the Government relief expedition up the Sunflower and Yazoo river®, estimates the losa of hoga total in the lazoo country, the Ions of cattle fully 75 per cent., uiid the fencing, with many of the small­ er houses, destroyed." A telegram from Natchez, Miss., reports: " Natchez is crowded with refugees, sod droves of alock are passing through town. Parties from the neighborhood of Lake Concordia and Tanaaa m«r report great destitution. Th® water rose so f*»ttiiatmtiny people had to place pickets across the rafters iu their houses and take refuge there, ttiey having no menus of getting away, and many of these housea are tottering from the force of the current. Tensas river is rising five inches iu twenty-four hours, and if it continues at this rate the lives of these people will be in great danger unless they are speedily relieved. There is a perfect panic among the negi oes, many being so terrified as to be unable to make the least effort toward saving themselves or families until roused by th* whites." . He, Knew How It Waa Himself. It ia related that when the Legislative Committee on Charities, etc., visited the Taunton Asylum, one of the patients ex­ hibited an automatic toy ot his inven­ tion. in which a prostrate wooden man was receiving severe kicking and thump­ ing by others. "Don't you think it rather severe on tbat poor fellow to be maitied and kicked in that way?" asked a legislator. "Oh, no," waa the reply. " you can't hurt him--he's in­ sane."--Bottom Journal. Housekeeping Hereafter, A family paper published a long arti­ cle entitled " Housekeeping Hereafter." " Merciful Heavens!" groaned a dis­ tracted mother of five children, and keeper of one husband and two servants, " if I thought there was going to be any housekeeping hereafter, I declare I'd never die." The poor woman found no more comfort in such a prospect than did that other over-w<«rked female pack- horse who declared iu her despair that ahe never found time to raet and never expected to rest. " WelJ, you will find it, perhaps, in another and better world," said a ayxnpathiziug friend. " No," moaned the discouraged creat­ ure, "that will not be my luck. My poor bones will not be well settled in the grave more than twenty-four hours when the trumpet will sound announc­ ing the day of judgment and we shall all have to turn out again!"--Buffalo Advertiser. SHORT OV COBtf. Aa Estuaate of] Ihc Qnaatlty «t Clnria •a Hand In the 1/nlted State*. Te following statement relative to the corn and wheat crops of 1880 and 1881 is furnished by the National Department of Agriculture: There are seven States tbat produce surplus corn. These States, together, yielded 1,04#,- 000,000 bushels in 1880, and 787,000,000 In 1881. On the 20th of March returns of the es­ timated quantity of com of the last crop. In th* hands of farmers ware made from over 400 counties of these States to the department. They represented more than two-thirds of the entire area. The percentage of product of each State stilt on hand in reported as follows: Ohio, 24; In­ diana, 27; Illinois, 26 ; Iowa, 26: Missouri, 15 ; Kansas, 16 ; Nebraska, 28. The average is nearly 24 per cent, and the amounts 175,000,000 bushels. The estimated propor­ tion on hand on the 20th of March, 1881, of the larger crops of 1880, was : In Ohio, 33 per cent; Indiana, 33 ; Illinois, 39 ; lowa^ 46 ; Missouri, 30; Kansas, 30; Nebraska, 38; average 87 per cent., or 388,000,000 bushels. The aasae States produced 256,000,000 bushels of wheat in 1880, and 169,000,000 in 1881. The propor­ tion on hand March 20, as estimatea, was: Ohio 35 per cent, Indiana 18, Illinois 19, Iowa 24, Missouri 17, Kansas 15, Nebraska 21; aver­ ts ge 21 per cent, or nearly 36,000,000 bushels. One year ago the proportion remaining of the crop of 1880 was: Ohio 30 per cent, Indiana 28, Illinois 24, Iowa 28, Missouri 28, Kansas 26, Nebraska 23; average 25 per cent, or 64,000,000 bushels. The results of this investigation indicate a compara­ tive shortage of 213,000,000 bushels, or 55 per cent less corn ou hand than on March 20,1881, and also a decrease of 28,000,000 bushels of wheat, or 44 per cent, less than on March 20, 1881, in these seven States, in addition to the (shortage of three other surplus-wheat States-- Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota--which are accredited with 75,000,000 bushels as the crop of 188L BULL-FIUHT1IG IN EL PA80. Oar Government. The following figures have been com­ piled showing the money paid to officials iu governmental affairs : The President 950,000 Vice President 10,000 Expenses of the White House': To fairly estimate the expenses of tbe White House requires a careful sorn- tiny of the appropriation bills, as the itemridre not classed under this head, but are scattered under other heading*, nor are they the same in any one year; but taking them at an average, and setting aside extraor­ dinary diKburrtements it may be cal­ culated that a fair annual estimate will be about Secretary of State, Treasury, Interior, War, Navy, Postmaster and At- tynsy-General, $8,000 each $60,000 80,000 56,000 Total $136,000 It is not so easy a matter to got at the precise cost of the Senate and tne House of Representatives, as the expenses are more elaborate from conditions which have nothing to do with the difference between a monarchy and a republic. The office of a Senator and a member of the House of Representatives carries with it a salary, while the membership of the House of Lords and Commons carries none. It must also be remem­ bered that the due fulfillment of his duties, by either Senator or Representa­ tive, involves long journeys, separation from business circles and peculiar ex­ penses which do not.occur in ..the other cages.

Appropriation for members 1,630,000 Salaries--Messengers, Clerks, Secreta­ ries 206,000 Total $2,848,000 Bringing our totals together we tind that the cost of representative institu­ tions in the United 6tates, with a popu­ lation of 50,000,000, is $2,348,000, or a capitation of live cents per head. It seems then that the proportionate cost of monarchical as against Republican in­ stitutions is as 2\ is to 1. As we have not included the cost of the diplomatic service in the foregdiug figures we will now proceed shortly to con­ trast the expenses of England and Amer­ ica so far as these items are concerned, for the purpose of showing how much more costly the, representatives of a royal court are than the delegates of a republic. The total co^t of the diplo­ matic service of Great Britain is $2,400,- 000, while the total cost of the same service of the United States is only $900,000. With a view of enabling the reader to judge for himself we will contrast in columns side by side the expense of England and America to differeut coun­ tries. United States. Great Britain.

Som old wooden wheels were discov­ ered some years ago in the mines of Portugal, supposed to have been once used by the Romans for hydraulic pur­ poses. The wheels were eight in num­ ber, the spokes and felloes of pine, and the axle and its suport of oak. They are supposed to exceed 1,450 years of age, yet the wood was iu a perfect state of preservation, having been thoroughly JMMAYUOJL WOFAV S>LTQ1>/TCD *VITH FISILTS OF copper and iron. A similar instance occurred in San Domingo, an old wooden wheel being discovered in a disused copper mine. How long it had been there is unoertain, but it waa completely preserved, owing to its having absorbed considerable quantities of iron and cop­ per. The preserving quality of these mineral* for. the impregnation of wood is well illustrated in the mines of Hal- lien, Austria, the timber used being the same which was originally introduced anterior to (fee Christian era, and which is even now in a perfect condition. ILevrrnworth Time*.) After long Waiting a bugle ia sounded, the doors are thrown open, and horsemen enter the ring, one conveying a stout pole, with a prod iu the end of it. Next come four wall-fighters on foot, with a stick about four feet long and *. dirty red cloth about the size of a small table-cloth, and they scatter theinselvofc •round behind tbe several blinds. No# the excitement is at fever heat; Guadfc* . loupe smiles, the bugle sounds, thfr doors are thrown open, and in comes a- little, stump-tabled bull or stag, with his- boras sawed off, The horsemen rid® out, and all in turn get the animal to- chase them around, and the footmen venture out from their respective places, of safety in like manner, and this per­ formance is kept up until the speed aid motion of the animal is reduced to p certainty. The footmen now became quite bol& ' They string theiir cloth on the stick in front of the bull, and he rushes for it with all the speed he has left. Th» man holding the cloth springs aside, tbe- bull passes to the next man, and so on. Next comes sticking the little spears ilk the animal's neck. These are littler •harp-pointed rods, with woodeik handles, ornamented with tissue paper, tin rings, etc. You will remember that it ia the cloth the bull is lighting: all the time. One man attracting the cttentioif of the animal, and another approaching him trom the rear at full speed the animal turning his head to look out for the new danger, the man plunges the spear in his neck and passes- on. They now know the exact speed, • and the fighters will in turn allow the- animal to chase them around the ring. This is kept up according to the nerve of the bull. Next and last comes the killing witht the sword. The fighter has the cloth fn his left and the sword in his right hand; now appears the bleeding and exhausted bull, which plunges away at the cloth,, and the fighter prods him in the neck, and perchance kills him; yet I saw them try five, and none were killed. They do, however, manage to mangle the poer animal horribly about the neck. This Is all there is in a bull-fight, and the whole matter was explained by a Texas cattle man who sat next me and remarked r *' Why don't the cowards turn a. cow in and try her ?" A bull, when mak­ ing an attack, always shuts his eyes, and does not open them until the object he assaults ceases to be a resistance, while, the mad cow never does, and follows the object up. Hence, fighting a mad. bull is muoli like fighting a blind ani­ mal, and, upon the whole, a gigantic- fraud, and any nationality that sanctions- such cruel treatment of dumb brutes- ought to be blotted out. How Lincoln Treated His Rivals. Lincoln had a way of maintaining in­ timate personal and official relation* with his moBt formidable political rivals. Instead of quarreling Vrith them, he counseled with them. He did not per-, miii tuc doveriimcnt to be deprived of their services by their personal ambi­ tion. Whether this course was dictated solely by devotion to the public inter­ ests or in part by that keenness of per­ ception which taught Lincoln the ad-. vantage of having his rivals in his own official household, it is not necessary to­ rn quire. It is only just to say, however, that it is not known that Mr. Lincoln ever indulged a feeling of personal bit-- terness at the expense of the good of thA public service during his entire public: career. Of Mr. Lincoln's entire fr * ' dom from indulgence in spleen or against political rivals his treatment o£ Seward and Chase are conspicuous ejg*.<- amples. Mr. .Seward was his most fdj^ ruiilable rival for the Presidental nomi­ nation in 1860, and he placed him at the head of his Cabinet. Mr. Chase retired from the Cabinet iu 1864, alter having . intrigued unsuccessfully for the nomi­ nation against his chief, and Mr. Lin­ coln soon afterward conferred upon lnm the highest honor within his gift- appointment to the Chief Justiceship df the Supreme Court. Probably no more , striking example of magnanimity can be found in the annals of political history. But it was this quality of magnanimity • that governed his conduct toward politi­ cal friends, joined to uncompromising" • firmness in dealing with all questions- involving principle, which contribute^, largely to render Mr. Lincoln's career more extraordinary and more illustrious than that of any American.
