The Daily Herald R. A. ALSTOM. H. W. Grady. I. W. Avkrt. ALSTON Sc CO.. I^roprietor*. THK DISCOUNT ON CITY TAX. It strikes cs that the City CoaDcil did a good thing when they offered a discount of five per cent, to all who wonld pay their city taxes in fall before the 1st of August As a d’rect practical result of this, the tax collector, Mr. Anderson (and quite a good one he is, too), has already collected $73,000 of the taxes. This is about $12,000 more thau the collecor last year collected during bis whole term of office, he taking in only about $60,000, and the city marshal collecting the balance on fi-fas. This was not the fault of the officers, but the fault of the system. The discount has cost the city about $3,000, bat toe treasurer has money in hand to meet all claims, and to protect the credit of the city. To have borrowed the $73,000 for the two months it would otherwise have taken to col lect it, would have cost at least as much. It is simply a question of allowing the dis count to the body of prompt tax-payers, or paying it in *be form of inttrest and commis sion to a few* money lenders. STATE POLITICS.!

She desired that Beecher should place himeelf at the head of the new womens' movement, and she aud others would uphold him. Beecher talked the matter over with her and soothed her considerably. He made no denial of the charges for the reason that it would have in volved an explanation of matteis which he did not wish to confide to her. The statement to be presented by Moulton this evening will most probably be read in all the morning papers, provided Moulton, Til ton and Beecher are agreable.

CHARLEY ROSS. THE ALLEGED KIDNAPPER ARRESTED IN VERMONT. Troy, N. Y., Aug. 10.—A special to the Times, from Bernicglon, Vt., announces the arrest of a woman named Flynn, who has a child answering to the description of Charlie Ross, the kidnapped boy. She tells contra dictory stories. SEOOND DISPATCH. Bennington, Vt., August 10.—Mrs. Fred Hamilton, formerly Mary Flynn, of Benning ton, has been arrested with a child iu her possession corresponding to description given of Charley Ross. It has the same colored h.iir and eyes. His bair hi8 been cut. He is a’oont the same age, talks plain, and says his name is Charley, that he had a nica home once. It is a singular coincidence, but other circumstances connected with the case makes it impiobahle that he is the lost child. Fred Hamilton is in the employ ot 1*. T. Barnum s circus, now at Ronton,and is iu correspondence with his wife. She says the child came from New York. The officers here await furlbir rcpeatei that he has preserved his friendly relations with all.parties to the case, during the long period covered by the documents in his pos session, acd that he has sincerely desired to effect a reconciliation between Tiltcu and Beecher. When the attacks on Tilton were made public by Beecher’s friends, Moulton felt compelled to come to the support of Tilton, and approved ol the course taken by Tilton in scii-defensc. Moulton finds it nec essary to recur to the beginning of the con troversy. While the difficulty having originated in differences bttween Henry (’. Bowen and Til ton, be gives the history of Tilton’s serious complications with Bowen, and step by step traces the progress of the breach between them, leading up to the final complications between Tilton and Beecher, ont of which grew the tripartite covenant. Moulton makes incidental allusion to some of the iur. or»aut interviews mentioned by Frank B. Carpenter, oepeoudly thos? winch relate to Bowen’s connection with the case. Moulton’s narrative comes in due course to the scenes between himself and Beecher, in the house ot the latter. The letter written by Mrs. Tilton, at the request of her husband aud Beecher, the writing of Beecher’s apolo gy, the whole text of which has already been made public, and the remarkable letter iu which Mr. Beecher describes himself as living on the sh up and rugged edge of remorse, fear and ifspafr. The last letter has remain ed in the ^custody of Moulton Irorn the day it was written up to the present time. The small portion of it included in Mr. Tilton's sworn statement was all that w r as placed by Monlton at Mr. Tilton’s disposal. The whole letter occupies two whole pages of foolscap, and the intensity cf expression revealed in the extract already published is its prevalent tone throughout ali the letters from iBeccher, from which quotation are made in Mr. Tilton’s statement have been lead in full by Mr. Monlton before the Com mittee. It is established by Moulton’s evi dence, that the letter of apology writt n by Beet her ou the evening of January 1st, 1871, was. as has already been intimated, written by Mr. Monlton at Beecher’s dictation and Beecher himselt wrote the lest line and ap pended Lis signatnre. The statements made by Mrs. Tilton in ebr published denial and in her cross-exam ination before the conmittee, are not sus tained by Moulton’s evidence. Ho states that Mrs. Tilton communicated with him freely, and confidentially in regard to the complications of this scandal, regarding him I as a like friend of herself, bor husbau 1 and Mr. Beecher. Mrs. Morse also made a confi dent of Mr. Monlton, depositing with him, some important letters, bearing ou this case. These letters, together with others to Tilton, go far towards strengthening his position, it is now understood ill it the statement re vised by Mr. MoultoD, will be furnished to |the press for publication about noon to morrow. New Yolk, August 10. — The Beecher-Tilton commute# o» investigation met this afternoon. Mr. Moulton did not make his appearance for an hour after the committee assembled. The side walk in front of the house was blocked up with reporters and crowds of curious spec tators, anxious to obtain, if possible, a glimpse of “our mutual friend,” Moulton. When taking his d* parture, alter a session of about two hours and a half, the committee adjourned. The members on coming down the steps were surrounded by a number of the press. They stated that they had bound lbcmsclves to secrecy, and would not make the statement public till they had held a con sultation. Mr. Moulton said he would give copies of his statement to the press at 11 o’clock to-morrow. The committee will hold its next session to-morrow night.

GREAT REJOICING IN RALEIGH OVER THK DEM OCRATIC VICTORY. Raleigh, Aug. 10. The city is a blaze with enthusiasm, celebrating the Democratic victory of Thursday last, and torched light procession and speaking at various points in. the city. Among the speakers is Mayor W. F. Cleregory, of Petersburg, Va. Good feel ing exists in the State democracy by not less than 10,000, white and 7 democroatio Con gressmen and Legislatures. A Vbby Loose Man.- For the past day or two there has been in this city a colorod man, who presents in himself a queer physiologi cal freak. He is thirty-four years of age, thick set,of medium height, of fair intelligence, and was born in Manchester, England. He gains a living by exhibiting himself to physicians. Hih abdomen is naturally full, but at will, without the use of bis hands, he gives it a wave-like motion, and^t gradually sinks in, as if being wound up, until it apparently rests close against the bnck-bone, and he presents the appearance of a man with no abdomen, aud then in the same manner he rolls it out to its oripiual form. He then drops from un der his ribs a duplicate set of ribs, with a breast-bone, when the original ribs and tbe duplicates can be distinctly felt and counted, and the whole front of tbe body is, as it were, iron clad. Or, at will, he apparently drops his heart from its DAturnl position some twelve inches, puts it back aud sends it to tho right side ot the body, opposite its natural position, puls it back and sends it to tbe lower part oi the body on tbe right side, thus piittmg it in four different positions. During these changes the two sounds of the heart can be distinctly beard iu either of these new’ positions, and not where they usually are beard. It seems uccessary, however, tint utter each change it should go back where it belongs before be ing sent to a new quarter. Ho also has the power to slop tbe boating of his heart at will, from five to ten seconds at a timo, the pulse stopping at the same time. He seems also to have cousiserable strength, easily bending by a blow ou tbe aim, a heavy iron cane which he carries. Several ot our promineut phyai cianshave examined him, from one of whom we have obtained these facts, and pronounce him to be the greatest curiosity in physiology they have ever seen or heard of.— Providence Journal.

Munson, commanding Camp Buggies, in a communication dated July 31, 1874, ai d received at the headquarters ot the army to- d>iy, states that tho grass-hoppers have de troy ed almost the entire crops of corn, oats, potatoes, etc., in tbe Loup and adjoining valleys. Copt. M. suggests that tbe farmers who have suffered this loss be employed in build ing iho post or in hauling material lor tbe same. He thinks it would prevent suffering during tbe coining winter. The report is for warded from Geu. Sheridan’s headquarters to tbe Adjt.-General of the Army, whose atten tion is invited to tbe suggestions of Capt. M. Attorney General Williams returned this afternoon and w ill resume bis official duties to-morrow. Messrs. Coughlin, James, McBlair, and Trailx, memb is ot tho Potomac Club, left hero last night, on their way to Saratoga. They carry with them two tour-oared shells, and will participate in the regatta to be held there ou the 31st iust. The Post Office Department has ordered a third trip per week on the mail route irorn Napa City to Kerrville, California; abo a third trip on route lrom San Louis to <’ mi- hrica, California. At its last session. Conei05s ordered the manufacture of a medal of reward lot the res cue of the Metas: also one to be distributed to persons employed at the life-saving sta tions who might hereafter risk their lives in rendering service to vessels iu danger ot ship wreck. The [Director of the Mint, having barge of the construction of the medals, ha* issued a circular to artists to compete for designs for tbe same, offering $200 reward lor ach design accepted. Tne latest date at vhich snch designs can be submitted is Sep- einber 15th. TLe Herald to-day contains the following dated the 9th inst.: Supervisor Perry, ol South Carolina, arrived here this evening en- routo for Maine, where he will spend a lew weeks. He siys that tbe Civil Rights Bill is what killed the Republican party in North Carolina and concedes a Democratic majority of 10,000. Two years ago, it will bo remem bered, this f.ffi ial was leader of the R'publi- |an patty in South Carolina, and organized j tho State fo ns to secure a Republican j uu»jorityJto effect tbe Presidential campaign iu November 1872. The sudden change bewil ders him, and be thinks it would have foen better bad Congress disposed of lh« Civil Rights measure. So great a victory ou the part ot the Democrats, he tears he will encour- ge illicit distilleries, and he will ask military posts to be established in some parts ot the State where it Las been suppressed. A new board of public school trustees were pprintcdj recently by the district. Tbe com missioners met to-cight, G. 1\ McClellan wa.-> lccted president and -T. II. Brooks appointed secretary. Mr. Brooks offered a resolution tor the revision oi the mb s and discipline of all* district schools. Mr. Brown offered a I resolution to divide the District of Columbia into fifteen school districts, one fir each irua- ■ee, which would give to each trustee barge of both white and colored school-!. I The resolutions were refcried to a commit tee ot which a colored man is the chairman, and a majority of such committee are in favor jf both rer?ointioEs. One member of tbe committee (white) declared himself in favor mixed schools. Of the 25 new members 10 are white and 15 colored. There was no dissent expressed from tho white man’s dec laration in favor of mixed sell m s. The Prac ical Man. [From the Scientific American') lie sat beside us iu a street car. He looked over our shoulder at the ne* copy ot the Sci entific American, which, fresh from the press, was receiving our final scrutiny, aud rtquested the loan of the paper for a moment when he bad finished. He glanced at the first page, skimmed over the middle, and peeped into the inside. “I suppose that paper interests agientmany people,” he remarked. We modestly signified our couseut. '•Wu’ll, it don’t me,” ho interrupted, .sharp ly. “It dosn’t take no papers or books to learn me my business, you know. Never learned nuthin’ from books in my life. Didn’t have but a quarter’s schoolin’, aud theu I went into the shop. Served my time with old Peter Reynolds, of Boston. Youknow'dhim inebbe; dead now. Was his foemau; now I’m boss ot my owu work iu this city. I’m a practical man, I au. All yer hollergeys and hossorp'uys may do well enough to write about, but they ain’t no gote’r use in tbo shop. They just git inter men’s heads and set ’em a tbinkin about other things thau their work, and then they git inventiu, aud that’s tho ast of ’em. Why, I had a likely youug iel- for, who used to buy that paper and read it, dinner hour. Sometimes he’d stick it up on his lathe,uatil 1 stopped that, mighty sudden. Wall, one day I caught him scribllm’ with a piece of chalk on a bit of board: then I knowed tho invention fit bad got hold of him and that ho was a goner. A few weeks after be comes to the office, and says, he : “Boss, I’ve got a little arrangement hero that'll make the old lathe do better work, and he out with one of them reg’lar printed paytents, and showed me a new attachment for making gearing and sick ‘ Wall,’ says I, to humor him, like, •sonny,’says I, ‘you can go make yer un- sheen aud sot it up on the lathe, if you want- ■r.’ Bat tho ungrateful villin began to say ometbing about royalty aud shop rights, and I told the bookkeeper to pay him right oft and let him clear out. Blow mo if ho didn’t go over to Smith’s across tho street, and rig his affair there ; and tbe first thing I know'd. Smith was turnin' out work at halt my prices. Theu J bad to go find that foller, and pay bun his blamed royalty, aud a heap it was, too. Now, thero was a good hand just spiled a read in’; if lie’ll let that ere paper of vour’u alouo he might ha’ been a good stiddy mau, gittin his three dollars a day comfortable and reg’lar. Now, they say he’s makin' stamps l»y thousands, but he’s spiled. Wont be worth nuthin ever fer work again. Whero’ud I have been if l*d pegged away at books and noocz- papers - eh ? ” Our practical friend did not wait for an an- .er ; for while we were cogitating a suitable response, he suddenly made a bolt out of the car aud rushed flown a street toward a dilapi dated-looking edifice, which, we conjectured, was none other thau tho “ works.” Our acquaintance carried off our paper. - He honestly mailed it back to us the other day. We smiled as we saw the thumb marks all the pages, and opposite an engraving there was a pencil note of : “ 1 kuo a bettor plau tbau this ” Perhaps after all a lateut idea iu his brain bos been aroused, or has ho taken the invention fit? Should be see this, he will promptly scout the idea that our hum ble efforts have awukinod him, lor "i‘ doesn't take no papers to learn me my busi ness, you know.” FOREIGN AFFAIRS.
