TIIK DAXKRCPT LAW.
The New York Bulletin throws considerable
light on some of the objectionable features of
the bankrupt Jaw, by leporting the answers Svere
of well known merchants and business men iLongley
(Dodge, Clafiin, Opdy'ce, Mayor Havemeyer, aplpcalf
etc.), to categorical questions regarding the i comsent
working of the law. TUeso gentlemen, to the !
number of a dozan, are almost unanimous in
the opinion that the law, as it stands at pres
ent, has not bene-fitted the commercial com
munity, and is not an effectual meins of col
lecting debts. Mr. Dodge says he has got
dividends in only twelve or fifteen out of on*
hundred and twenty-five cases, and Mr. Claf-
hn that “ cut of thousands of cases they have
rarely recovered anything, the little that is
realized being eaten up by the expenses of
passing through the court.” On the other
hand, Mr. Dodge says that “in private settle
ments, wo have always received something, j
and never so low as fifty cents on the dollar,” cc
but thi. i? partially owing to the fact that the
most promising failures are settled in this
way. Complaint is also made of the excessive
, fees, and, on the whole, the :e opinions do not
confirm Mr. Jsncke's view that this is a
“businessman's law, and n- i a lawyer’slaw.” I for
That the country needs permanently an equi-1 2»
table and inexpensive law thero can be no 1 * an
doubt, and it is the duty of Congress to .so
amend the present law as to make it such.
It is evident that Congress should Bftke
some material changes in our bankrupt sys
tem, in order to make il available for the pro
tection of creditors. The law, ns at present
administered, benefits nobody but the bank- ;
rapt and officers of the law. Competition i
will probably regulate attorney s fees, but the ■
costs of court and assignees* per cent, should j
be better regulated. After all, we are not sura
but that it would be best to repeal the Feder- j
al lav altogether, and leave tho whole quec-1
tion to'the States. It is not certain buttha.
it would bo far better for both debtor and j
creditor.. _ ^ 1'

we may add that the most serions obstacle in
its solution, and, in fact, in arriving at a correct
theory and practice in all tLe important affairs
of life, is to be found in tho general devotion
o old ruts, and the labor and sacrifice of get-
ng ont of them. This proclivity is entirely
tural. It takes its origin partly in a landn-
attachment for old things and associations,
partly from the intellectual indolence of
ind. Mind mast be both free and .ve
to arrive at trntb, and do its part in the
crest work of national and individual pro-
gresr.
Applying these tb tight., to the present
■ ondition of European countries dissatisfied
with their governments and in search of a
better, we Cud that their ditficulty consists
mainly in ridding themselves of old opioions
and prejudices. They want something new,
bat cAinot fully make up tbeir minds to part
with the old, however threadbare and effete it
may hp7e become. Still groping in the dark-
ness of the past, conscious of its defects and
anxie.uip for a remedy, they yet fear to strike
ont bo Ally in the regions of thought and de
velop ofce. Io all their stateemensbip, they

Washington, January 2, 1874.
No official report has been received com
firmatory of the report from Madrid respect
ing tho indemnity to be demanded by the
Spanish Government in the case of tho Vir
ginias, nor is it probable that any such
claim will be presented, the ad
justment of tho question involved
having been arranged by the protocol,
of the representatives of the two countries.
If at any future time a bill of damages should
be presented payment would, thero is good
ground for stating, bo refused on tho princi
ple established by the Geneva tribunal, in
tho disallowance of indirect or consequential
damages; therefore it can certainly be stated
that Spain will not receive any money what
ever, growing out of the transaction in con
nection with the Virginias, even if that vessel
had reached its deetinaticn and been sold by
the United States government for violation
of laws. The preparation of the
Yirginius correspondence will be completed
to-morrow, and may bo sent to Congress
Monday next. It is represented to he volum
inous. Speaking to-day of the intelligence
from Havana that the Tornado had left port,
and it was generally stated that she had or
ders to pursue the Edgar Stewart, and if she
proved to be of the same oharacter as the
Virginias, to sink her, a gentlemen high in
official positior said tho ignorance or want of
correct information on the part of the Span
ish officers was never more apparent than in
this instance, as it was known here that the
Edgar Stewart is still at Baltimore, with no
immediate prospect of leaving for any port or
destination.
An appropriation by Congress of nearly
$2,000,ti00 in gold will be required in satis
faction of claims allowed by tho late United
States nud British Commission.

IS HE AN ENGLISHMAN ?—AN OLD "WOMAN CLAIMS
THE rSOrQEZ AS HER LONG JX)8T HTJSEAND.
From the Now York Ilerald.
An old woman in the county of Durham,
England, eighty-one years of ago, of th9
namo qf Biigliam, thinks that Brigham
Young is her liubband, who deserted her
and their children, and disappeared from
England forty years ago. It appears that
her husband (Brigham) was the natural
son of a man named Young and a woman
named Brigham; tliat ho waa adopted by a
man named Allen; that after the young man’s
marriage he proved to bo anything but a de-
vo|vd husband and lather; that ho worked for
some time in London as a cooper, under the
nime of William Brigham, and that he left
London and his wife and children to join the
Mormons in America. This man would be
now in the s6Yenty-8ixth year of his age, and
our inquiring correspondent evidently be
lieves that President Brigham Young, of tho
Latter Day Saints of Utah, is the long lost
bu3band of the aforesaid Mrs. Brigham.
We cannot undertake the task of assisting
the interested parties in England in gathering
up tho evidence required to establish thesup-
pcs d claims of Mrs. Brigham to the position
of the first wife ot the great Brigham ot Utah.
Tiiat famous English traveler, Twichard F.
Br.rtou, in his “City of the Saints,” says of
the Mormon Prophet, that he was born at
Whittingham, Vermont, on the 1st of June,
1801, and, as Burton in bis statement is re
lating a conversation held with the prophet
himself, wo conclude that ho speaks by
authority. We had supposed, howevor, that
Brigham l’ouug was a native New Yorker.
Still, between the general description of tho
peison of Young, as given in our letter from
England and that of Bnrlon—allowing for
the interval of thirty years—there is a resem
blance, and upon one point it is remarkable.
Burton speaks of a silent droop in the lid of
the left eye, “ which made me think he had
suffered from paralysis,” and our English
letter refers to tho same peculiarity. How
ever, many distinguished characters in all
ages of the world have been claimed in differ
ent persons and by different places.
Financial and Commercial.
Africans and the Slave Trade.—Sir .Sam
uel Baker, who has been operating in Central
Africa under the Khedive of Egypt, has re
cently returned to England, and on the 8th
December made an address before the Royal
Grographical Society. He mentioned the
noticeable lact that, aside from the Khedive,
the expedition which had in view the sup
pression of tho slave trade, had no friends,
causing distrust even of the very natives who
were liable to be seized as merchandise. He
passed through eighty miles, desolate and
uninhabited, which on a former visit he had
found teeming with population. The people
had all been swept oft' and sold ! Notwith
standing this fact, it was discovered that to
suppress tho slave trade it will bo necessary
to reform tho whole character of Central
Africa. Tho system is said to be so fixed in
the habits of tho people that they will inva
riably sell each other if they have the oppor
tunity. *Sir Samuel talked to some of tho
chiefs on tho subject, and to one chief, who
was a highly iutelligant man, he preached
almost a sermon on the abolition of tho
slave trade. The man appeared “immensely
touched,” but immediately afterwards offered
to sell his own son for a spado ! It is obvious
that the slave trade can never be put an end
to till the natives of the region chiefly inter
ested become sufficiently civilized and Chris
tianized to co-operate with outsiders in the
work tf their own emancipation.
A Cargo of Silk Worm Eggs Worth $2,-
000,000—How THEY ARE TRAVELING FROM
Javan to France.—One of the most valuable
consignments that ever passed across tho
continent arrived at Chicago on the 2ith
instant, : oin Ban Francisco. eight
car carried the consignment, which^as val
ued at $2,000,000, and which consisted of silk
worm eggs purchased at Yokohama, Japan,
by tho French Government, and which
landed in San Francisco on the 10th instant.
These eggs arc about cno-fourth the size of a
common pin’s head, and of the number in
this cargo some idea may bo gained when
it- is learned that on this one car there
were nino and a half tons of eggs.
The cargo was carried to Now York and
thence will bo shipped per steamer to
Liverpool. Four Fronchmcn accompany tho
precious freight, and will not lose sight of it
until delivered to tho French officials i n Paris.
The eggs arc packed in leaves, layer upon
layer, and placed m air-tight tin boxes, which
arc in turn covered with matting. The car is
kept at a temperature below the freezing
point, and no light is admitted. The. matting-
covered boxes are piled on either side. There
i3 nothing to be seen ♦hero but matting, and
the appearance of the boxes, says the Trib
une, is certainly not indicative of the value of
their contents. This is the first attempt yet
made to import silk vorms via tho United
States.
Marriage of Blood Delations.—Statictics
presented to the French Academy show that
the marriage of blood relations form about two
per cent of all the marriages in France, and
that the deaf and dumb offspring, at birth of
consanguineous marriages, aro in proportion
to the deaf and dumb born in ordinary wed
lock—at Lyons, fall twenty-five per cent., at
least twenty-live per cent, in Paris, and thirty
per cent, in Bordeaux; tho proportions of tho
deal and dumb by birth increasing with the
degree of blood relationship. Tho data ob
tained show that, if the danger of having a
deal and dumb child in ordinary marriage,
represented by figures, is one, thero will be
eighteen in matriages between first cousins,
thirty-seven in marriages between uncles and
nieces, and seventy in marriages between
nephews and aunts. It appears too, that the
most healthy parents, if related in blood, may
have deaf and dumb children, while deal and
dumb parents, if not related, very rarely have
d6af and dumb children.
Firmness of Gov. Hendrick?.—A singular
temptation was thrown in the way of Gov.
Hendricks a few days since and nobly resist
ed. One Gal von, au attorney of Tipton, car
ried away by the excitement of the election
in 1872, backed his taith in Hendricks with
a wager of considerable magnitude, and
scooped it in. Borne mean spirited, low-
down cuss procured his indictment by the
grand jury, and ho was fined one hundred
dollars A few days ago ho made application
to the Governor to liavo his fine remitted.
Hero was a predicament for his Excellency.
IIi3 feelings prompted him to bo lenient to a
personal and political friend, who had mani
fested so sublime a confidence in tho populari
ty of his Excellency. On tho other hand
there was tho law—tho red-eyed law—and
also a fear that his enemies would charge that
he had remitted tho fiuo simply because tho
man bet on him. Thomas considered the
u. titer, and finally wrote to Mr. Galven that,
s he had won the bet, he had bettor pay
