In Cherry strcot. Two of tho uumlter
wero natives of Munillo. The stories of
tho crew differed material Iv, bat in one
tiling they all agreed. They had run

been kepi on an amount which they say
was iust sufficient to lec on lifo in their
bodies "Vo lefc Manilla on Slay 17'

time vo had plenty of good food. Out
rations wero reduceti to one, two or three
slices of bread a day vq never pot imnv
titan three, and sometimes had but ou"
Uiroo or four spooufula of rice, and two
or IhrcepoonfuU of ' beans. On September
26w&ixke tho brig J&aurella, and
got froia hex a barrel o3 Hour and
some hard tack. A week ago our food
gave put, and wo were put on short rations
again- Wo never could have stood
it, but it happened to be good weather,
and the Captain didn't ask us to do u thin,:
but work tho ship, which didn't amount t
much."
Another of tho crew said : '
"We were badly treated from tho time
wo kit port. The provisions ere bad(
and we were worked very hard; some nt
us complained to the mates, buttluy inudu
it the harder for us. We knew better
than to complain to the Captain, for he
would have made tiie man who went to
him tt'good deal worse oil" than ho wo before.
It was undcrbtood all unmi, I
that Captain Carter didnt want
anybody coming to him with
complaints. When we got so short oi
rations that we couldn't sleep at night wo
knew wo were starving. None of us
heard of tlie Captain's cutting himself
short for a day. We hud a jubilee when
we met the I tiurelhi and got a supply f
beef and hard tack, but that was soon
exhausted.1'
Captain J.Carter said: "The story th it
tho piovisioiw were bad. and that the
men weie overworked, is false. Not a man
complained to iiu from the beginning to
the end of the voyuge, but all appeared perfectly
ratified. 1 don't know whether
they "found fault to tho mates or no., if
thev had uny fault to lind it was their
btihiness to come to mo, 1 would like to
make touo men who grumbled to you go
out for another passage: On our Urn
short allowance i gave them half a pout: I
of bread each a day, an allowanco ot beef,
plenty ot sugar and beans twice a week.

Short Abfnce.
New Yohk, Oct 9. Tho well-known
If not celebrated, Freddie Gobh&rdt re-turned
from Europo unheralded, by the
Bteamhip Arinooa. asd is now in this
city. He went board tho steamer at
Liverpool nccompOTiicd only by his valet.
There were several friends of his on
board with whom he spent all his time.
He did not associate with tho other passengers
at all, and whctlier or not he went
on board under on assumed name is uncertain.
His name docs not appear on
tho passenger list at all, and for tno first
two days his friends called him Gibbs,
nnd he gave that name when ho
bought a chance in the ship pools.
Alter that his friends called him
without nny hesitation. One day a
tall Kentnckian, Burnhara by name, a
Fon of Judgo Burnhom, who" was First
Assistant Secretary of tho Treasury under
Bristow, went up to Gcbhardt, who
was leaning against a pillar of tbo
room, smoking a cigarette, and said:
"Will you be kind enough to give mo a
light?" Gebhardt looked at him a minute
and said: "I don't think I had bettor.
Yon might break my cigarette." Two or
three days afterward Gcbhardt nsked
Burnham for a light. Tho latter replied:
"I dor& think I had better, you might
break my cigarette,"
One night in tho companion wnv two or
three young men were throwing blankets
and rugs at each other. One blanket
struck a young fellow, Dr. Green, from
Philadelphia. Hoturn?d and threw it at
Gebhardt, thinking that the latter had
thrown it at him. It struck Gebhardt on
.tho shoulder He turned and seizing
Grccoo by tho taisftw aid, "Don't throw
your blankets at mcr Groeno jerked his
wrist loose, and pushing him up atrainst
the wall, said, "You baby." Gebhardt
said nothing, and Greene, after looking a
minute, turned away. Gebhardt is about
six feet high and powerfully built, while
Greene is small nnd slender. Gcnhardt
told a passenffor of tho steamer that be
had made $rf000 with Eolo this year. lie
asked tho purser on Sunday to see that
none of the nowspajwr men knew of his
arrival, lie occupied the room of tho
first steward. On of Gcbhordt's friends
said he was very free in drinking other
people's wine,but very chayibout spend

'THE POSTAL UOTES.
PoBMftvlUty ol Vorsixtg aodl IlnlnXnc
Washington, Oct. 9 9D& MacDonald
head of tho money order arstcin of tho
jPostofiice Department, Aral in regard to
the alleged forging and raising ot tno
new postal notes: I do not think they
are being raised for tho purpose oi fraud.
Some persons liave dona fioby way of experiment,
jubt to show that it can bo done,
out if any of them have boon raised or
altered with tho criminal intenteut. I
have not heard of it. And if there were
any such cases retried to the Department
of course they would come here to my
desk. Xo, I do not think there Ls any
can?-? for alarm abut Uio ivost.il notes being
raised. A I said, it bus InxMidoue by
persn who wanted to show that it was
possible, but the result of their cliorts has
neon to hhow that to sucetfully niie
them and to obuiu mmey Jipou them
would be almon impocuiblc. i do this a
piece muHt he punched out of
the note at one pluce and in
hortcd at another, and tsxed in its ptace
by p.tin a piece of papr over toe back
or by iidiu gum at the edges- In either
case the iraud would bo very easily detected.
Toe note might probably
pus from one pi'ixn to another, as a circulating
medium, without the fraud being
observed, but no postmaster would pay it
without detecting the change at once. By
holding tho note up to Uio light, any
change of this sort, no matter how skill
fully done, would be soeu at once. Now,
an thto notes tiro not intended to bo a circulating
medium, aud wem made of
only throe months life especially
that they might not become such,
I don't thiulc there is any
cause for ulurm about Jheuu There is another
reason, too, that tliey are not likely
to become a circulating medium, and that
is because they are of no definite denomination.
Thu Hum is written in, and may
be any amount, from one cent to $4.99,
This uncertainty as to their amount would
alone make them exceedingly Jlnconven
lent as a circulating medium. Then, too.
they ure nmall, cannot be over &L99, and
the nrolit in raitdng them would be umall.
while tho probability of detection would
bu very great, Xo, I don't think there U
any cuiibu for ulurm about tho postal
note,

Washington, Oct, 9. Mr. Elaine has
nearly comnletcd his history of "From
Lincoln to Uarileld." lie will then begin
upon a hibtory of the wir of 1812 No
satisfactory history confined to this inter
eisting period has ever been written. Jin
Blaine proposes to fill up this interesting
gap in our history, and has already gathered
a masi of material for it From a
lersonal friend of Mr. Blaine's it is
learned that he was oflered $1,000,000 in
cahh for the two volumes of Uio "Lincoln
to Garfield'' he is now writing. Mr.
Blaine wad new to tho book business
and was about to accept the oiler when a
friend urged him not to, but to insist in
its place upon a royalty of fifty cents a
volume Publishers have orders for 100,-000
volumes of the history, and ure perfectly
confident they will sell 300,000 volumes.
Mr. Blaine has a reat mas of
matdrial for the history oi the Garfield
administration, and the canvass preceding
the election. Mr. Blaine has preserved
all of the papers of his term of
ollice as Seentary ot State, by having
otiicial copicb of everyUiing made before
he left the department. His succe m.iy
bring other public men into the ruiiK.vu

Nkw "Xouk, Oct 9 Hio Commission,
crs of Accounts on the coupon frauds and
the general condition of tlw ununoe department
of tho city will make a report to
Mayor Edson. The tabulated statement
on which tho report ia based covers 100
sheets of paper three feet square and
hundreds of sheets of paper of bank
ledger size. Tho report will show that
douolo payments of interest began ten
years ago, and were made with few
on tho $15,000,000 of bonds known
as tho liclmont loan. Nearly all the coupon
bonds issued prior to 1874 were included
in that loan. Tho report will
show exactly how the coupon frauds wero
committed and will give reasons for rejecting
tho theory th.tt counterfeit coupons
were used. Tho commissioner's
former report covered only tho time between
tho beginning of 1879 and August,
1SS2, when Clerk Win. 11. Carroll died
That report gave tho amount of tho cityM
los at about ?1G9,000. The now report
will fix the sum at considerably higher

PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL.
A tUronix 1'Ieu AtrnliiNt the Color Jjlne
in the Church.
Pini.AUKLrniA, Pa., Oct. 9. Bishop
Wilson, of Alabama, addressed tho Protestant
Episcopal Convention in relation to
tho work among tho colored people in tho
South. The hpoaker said that not only
his present work, but his earliest ministry
had called him among this class of people.
Ho spoke strongly against the idea
of having separate congregations of colored
ico pie, and said he would sooner
lose his right hand than vote to establish
any such distinction in the House of God.
Tho speaker urged strongly upon the
Convention not to make any caste in the
Church, that God had mado none, and it
would be making a rainbow of variegated
church should it attempt to introduce
the color line. Bishop Lyman also addressed
tho Convention. He covered the
same ground as Bishop Wilmer aud indorsed
his remarks.

of the death of Litta, the prima douu.t,
her valuablo diamonds aud other expensive
jewelry were placed in the
vault for safe keeping. The
Eye publishes an article which
places a young man named Itothcnvel!,
who is a postotlicc clerk, in a rather bad
light He is something of a ladies' man,
and the Eye says that a number of his
female friends have for some weeks pact
been decorating their persons with the
precious gems of tho dead songstress,
which llotherwcll kindly took from the
safe and handed out in a rather promiscuous
manner. The relatives of Litta feel
highly indignant over Rothcrwell'u conduct,
and are taking steps to collect tho
jewelry from the parties now having the
wrongfully possessed property,
