The Trib*ne't Washington special, of the 21st inst, says: It has been long known that Secretary Fish had decided to retire from office, and that be has long begged iu vaiu for the acceptance of his resignation. The President, however, never haring seen a time in which he thought he could spare the Secretary, without injury to the pub lic service, has declined to relieve him. It is now stated, on the highest authori ty, that Mr. Fish will soon discontinue housekeeping here, and not resume it again. He has said within a day or two that he considered the time had now ar rived when he thought he might retire with satisfaction to all parties concerned. The oa^y delay will be oooasioned by the closing np of the affair* of the Joint High Commission, and the appointment , of arhitratora on the part of the United j the ( States in the oummiasiou alnnit to ns*-m ble at Genera, and the Secretary says he will on no account accept the commis- aionenhip lor tbe settlement of the Ala bama ana other claims, nor can he fill any offioe in the creation of which he bore any psrt The President will ap point tue arbitrator a* mj«»u as the treaty u ratified by the Euglish Government. — Xt Hffifintiel that the arbitrator should lie a perfect French scholar, a lawyer, and » HOW HE DIED. The Sad Fate of Dr. Livingstoue. A Western exchange gets off the fol lowing burlesque on tbe mnch discussed question of the fate of the great African traveler: Sir Roderick Murchison is hereby in formed that Dr. Livingstone is very dead, indeed. Au intelligent gorilla has recent Iv been imported to this city, who had the good fortune to serve the doctor as u body servant iu the interior of Africa, and he thus describes the manner of hi* master's death. The doctor was accus tomed to pass his nights in the stomach of an acquaintance—a crocodile about fifty feet long. Stepping out one eve ning u> hike observation of one of the lunar eclipses peculiar to the country lu spoke to his host, saying that as he should not return until after bedtime, he would not trouble him to sit up to let him iu; he would just leave the door opeu until he came home. By way of doing so, lie set np a stout feuce rail between bis land lord's distended jaws and went away, lteturuiug about midnight, he took oil iiis boots outside, so us not to awakeu his friend, entered softly, knocked away the prop, aud prepared to turn in. But the noise of pounding on the rail had aroused the householder, and so great was the feeling of relief induced by tin- relaxation of the muxillury muscles that he unooneeionHiy shut bis mouth to smile, without giving Lis tenant time to get into bed. The dou.or was just stooping to untie bis drawers, when he was cought between the floor and ceiling of the re ception room, like a lemon in a squeezer, Next day the meluucholy remains wert given to our informant, who displays i singular reticence regarding his disposi tion of them; merely picking his teeth with his claws in uu absent, thoughtful kind of way, as if the subject was too mournful to be discussed in all its har rowing details. None of the doctor’] maps or instrumeLts were recovered; his bereaved luudlord holds them as security for certain rents claimed to be due and unpaid. It is probable that Great Britain will make a formal demand for them, aud if they are not surrendered—will aubmit her claims to a conference. Radical Extra*usance. As an offset to the charges brought igaiust tin* Radical party, some of their journals have the audacity to declare that the expenditures of the government have been reduced, when the years 18G9-70 and 1871 are compared. Mr. Bock, of Kentucky, a member of the Committee of Appropriations, just before the close of the last session ot the Forty-first Con gress, most effectually disposed of this falsehood, uuder which exposition even Mr. Dawes, with ull his talent for making the worse appear the better cause, wo.- luicL'd to keep silent. According to a table prtM* utr-1 by Mr. Beck at that time, the exfi*ufrhti.i t s fur 1860-70 were $286,- (187,783, while thoao of 1870-71 were $202,830,131. The amounts appropria ted for 1K70-71 Were slightly altered by the subsequent amendment of bills— for instance the Indian appropriation was increased more thau one million of doliur*—I mi no material change was made in (ho aggregate amount of appro priations. Tiie expenses were increased instead »>i decreased by tho last Con gress. The public can form some idea as to the justness of the claim of “econ omy” set iq* by the Administration from a glance at the figures lately furnished by the Secretary of the Treasury. The total expenditures of the government for the fiscal year eliding June 30, 1800, were $63,023,780, while those for the fiscal year just closed amount to the enormous Htun of $292,113,260. If from this lattei amount be deducted the interest paid up on the public debt ($127,702,338)-, the cost of collecting the internal revenue, ($7,000,000), and an estimated increase on account of army and navy pensions, of $20,000,000 (the gross amount paid pensioners the last year being put down by the Department ut $28,000,000 in round numbers), there will remain the sum of $137,410,031 as the amount of expenditure# beyond those of the legiti- i results of the civil war. These tig tires prove, says a contemporary, tlmt, instead of reducing the expenses of the government from a war basis, the Radi cals arc increasing them each year. It is well for tax-payers to keep these facts iu mind. They are worth more than all the nonsen >c printed in the Radical pipers —fNftsIivitlr Union. -* -4 . A Western exciuuigu vouches for the following; A few days ago, while about a dozen men were engaged in clearing ont a large spring from which tbe jteople ohtuiu wa ter for irrigation, they found, standing erect, iu the spting, what had been a year old heifer in an advanced state of petrifaction. The auinml is so com plete that < v n tli<‘ ear marks are plainly visible. The work of petrifaction has proceeded so far in the case of this heif er that it is quite hard, and if left in the spring some time longer it would, doubt less, no completed.

The Constitutionality of the Iucome Tax is at last fairly submitted to a Judge of the Supremo Court of the United States.

There is n story from Huron town, for the truth i f which we will not vouch - , but w ill i lerely give it, so that some idea mav 1 i formed of the size of the icebergs i >at fell during that memorable * orm. A sperical-shai>ed ieelierg i i’opped on one of the streets of that village, near a down grade, which gave it sufficient momentum to tear np one or tw'o trees which it encoun tered, and it was only stayed in its course by lodging between the walls oi* a ravine, wliere the road winds its way to the village. For the benefit of those who do not know the fact, we state that the Ku-Klux law provides, in violation of the Federal C- institution, which requires a demand fc troops to come from the State author ity s, that the President may, upon liis own motion, send troops to any State to put down whatever he may consider re- bel ion, and gives to him the power, whenever in his judgement, the public safety may require it, to suspend the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus aud declare martial law. Now, anybody who understands {“ the logic of events” can see that under such a law the Presi dent is all-powerful. He judges as to the dangerousness of tho rebellion. He de clares martial law. He suspends the writ of habeas ootpus. New, suppose he does these things without cause ; where is the remedy ? There is none. The courts are silenced by martial law. The people are kept down by trrops. Is it not plaiu, then, that the President may at will sup press any paper iu tho South Rich mond Dispatch. The New York Sun thinks it is hardly to be wondered at that carpet-bag politi cians in the South find it difficult to gain social recognition from old residents, when they are represented by such meu Councilman Alfred Crocker, of Peters- bi rg, Virginia. One Richard Green, a nt gro under sentence of death for mur der, has been interviewed by a reporter of the Petersburg Index, and the follow ing is a portion of the con versation which took place on that occasion : “Where were you on the night of the murder ?” “At Mr. Alfred Crocker’s store, near Pocahontas bridge, playing dominoes. ” “Who is Alfred Crocker?” “A Yankee, who keeps store. He is a member of tho City Council, and keeps an all-night house; he sells liquor in the back room next to his store, aud we col ored folk# play cards aud dominoes there uearly every night.” Even the ignorant negroes canuot but hold these fellows iu supreme contempt; what, then, must the intelligent whites think of them? The Philadelphia Age of Juno 20, says: Important facts have transpired in rela tion to the resolution passed by the Rad ical Convention iu Pennsylvania, indors ing Graut. It appears that this resolu tion was twice offered in the Committee, and twice rejected by an almost unani mous vote. It was next offered in open Convention, where the members did uot like to vote agaiust it, and allowed to go through. The sense of the Convention evidently against General Grant, and it is said the countercurrent was set run ning by Senator Cameron. The old trick ster does not want the President to see that he is too stroug in Pennsylvania.— That might detract from tho power and influence of the Senator at the White II Rise. Several excursions are now being made iu Europe by tho people’s servants, and the people may perhaps like to know the figures they are paying for these pleasure jaunts. Wo give a couple of items from the Washington Patriot, as follows: “F. E. Spiuuer, Treasurer of the United States, salary $6,000 annum, with $10 per -lay, aud ten cents per mile additional, while traveling in Europe for health and pleasure; W. A Richardson, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, $3,000 poran- -mm, with $10 per day and 10 cents per mile additional while in Europe. ” If the “Government” wishes to hire any more excursionists at the above rates, we think that the supply will be found equal to the lemand.
