T. M. Scott, jb., of Lauderdale
county, Tenn., was killed by John
Tarrant, Mayor of Ripley, In that
eouoty, in a street tight between
them on the 21st. The difficulty
grew out of tho imposition by the
Mayor of a tine On the father of
young Scott, ami the tight was com
menced by tho Mayor tiring at Scott
as he passed him on tho street. The
tire was returned until Scott’s pistol
was empty, the Mayor firing the
fatal shot as he ran. Tarrant was
wounded.
Andkbson, of Louisiana returning
board imfatny, is said to bo the
President's choice for collector of
NeW Orleans; but we are given to
understand that tho President Is
overruled in this matter by the vote
of his Cabinet. One trouble about
tills appointment is to get a man
whose nomination will be confirmed
by the Senate. If Mr. Hayes sup
poses that unv Democratic Senator
would stultify himself by voting for
any member of the Louisiana return
ing board for any office, he is greatly
mistaken. Aud if three or four dis
senting Republicans can lie found, it
will require Democratic votes to con
firm Mr. Hayes’ nominations.

No stronger proof of the, ‘‘demor
alization” of the speculating business
of the country by gambling practices
could be adduced than the reported
failure of E. N. Robinson &C0.,0f
Now York. We tiro told that the
firm was regarded as the strongest
on the street, and that not a suspi
cion about its solvency was enter
tained up to tho moment of the an
nouncement of the failure. Can we
be at a loss to account for the general
distrust and want of confidence in
uny securitos, when such astounding
failures are announced? And can we
reasonably expect a restoration or
confidence aud stability sp long as
stock jobbing and much of the com
mercial business of tho country is
conducted according to tho prevail
ing gambling methods? Wo think
not.
The New York Herald's Washing
ton reporter anticipates a war at the
extra session, between tho Adminis
tration and anti-Administration Re
publicans, which will throw into tho
shade the contest over tho appropria
tion bills. Ha telegraphed on the
23d: "Tho wildest predictions are
made as to the course tho anti-Ad
minlstration Republicans will take.
It is even said that they will go so
far as to endorse a resolution ques
tioning tho President’s title, aud that
they will give what holp they can to
facilitate proceedings under a writ of
quo warranto, should Mr. Tilden
choose to revive and try tho issue in
that shape. R©iort has it that an
other eonsploucous and iulluontial
Senator has thrown down the gaunt
let to the President, and will arrange
himself with Senator Blaine in the
expected battle on the lloor of the
Senate. On tho other hand, Mr.
Hayes is assured that for every de
fection of his kind, on account of his
policy toward the South, he gains
five adherents from among conser
vative Democrats.”
TheWau.—The movements already
made indicate that Russia is going to
push the war with energy and try to
bring Turkey to terms in one cam
paign. The first hard fighting will
probably be when the Russians at
tempt to cross the Danube, and they
may find this a more difficult job
than they anticipate. The Turks no
doubt comprehend the importance of
maintaining a stand there. It is not
at all unlikely that the first great
fight will boa forerunner, so far
as the result is concerned, of all the
important engagement that follow
just as was the ease in the war of
Italy and Fiance with Austria; in
that of Prussia against Austria; and
in that of Germany against France.
That seems to be the course of all
European wars of late, aud may be
the case in this instance. The con
ditions are peculiarly favorable to it
in Turkey, bebause she has so large
a Christian population who may be
aroused to revolt by Russian suc
cesses.
IMA FINANCIAL “NEW UKFARTI RK
f'ONTKMPLATKDT
There was one declaration of Secre
tary Thompson, In tho Interview
noticed by us yesterday, to which we
did not call attention, but which
pleased us more than any other sen
i tlment attributed to him. If we were
! assured that in this matter ho Indi
cated tho doming financial policy of
the new administration, we should
feel confident of an early apprecia
tion of the currency to par vulue and
the remSVal of one of the great
hindrances to business activity. Rut
wo can entertain no sanguine hope
that he spoke for the administration
while John Shermau is Secretary of
the Treasury.
We allude to the Secretary's decla
ration In favor of tho complete “re
monetization” of silver, and his
proposition that "our currency ought
to lie national, a legal tender for cus
tom (lues and all other dues, and rest
ing upoh a metallic basis.” Wo have
often expressed the opinion that tho
first, step of the Government towards
resumption ought to be the honoring
of its own currency by receiving It
for custom dues. We do not believe
that tho difference between gold and
greenbacks can ever be totally wiped
out so long as tho Government re
fuses to take tho greenbacks for
two hundred millions of dol
lars or more of custom dues
annually, and demands gold for
them. Ttiis is an Immense Bum of
money, nearly or quite equal to one
third of the whole currency of the
country, and probably equal to
one-half of tho currency actively
used In commerce and business. So
long as the paper currency is una
vailable for this large proportion of
the commercial payments of the
country, and gold is available not
only for this purpose but for all other
business, can any proposition be
plainer than that gold will be the
most desirable currency, and if most
desirable, it will command a pre
mium? Then the present policy of
collecting all the gold coin of the
country and paying it out semi
annually in largo sums to a few per
sons facilitates the acquisition of it
by brokers and makes it a commodity
of purchase and sale. Their mis
chievous power over the currency is
great enough without the Govern
ment working into their hands, and
this great adverse influence is one of
tho obstacles to be removed before the
Government can bring the green
backs up to gold par.
PHILADELPHIA LETTER.
The Frrniniicnt liiternntlonal Exhibi
tion.
... , ... ——
IT WILL BE A “BIG THING.”
From our Regular Correspondent. 1
Philadfxmiia, April 25,1577.
Thinking that a letter from Phila
delphia in relation to tho Permanent
International Exhibition would be
more Interesting than Washington
correspondence, during this season of
political flatness, I havo been spend
ing a few days amid tho almost de
serted palaces of the Great Exposi
tion, where silence and emptiness, as
contrasted with the gay humor over
flow of last fall, make the present
loneliness doubly impressive.
The Permanent Exhibition will be
opened with due ceremony on the
10th of next mouth. Tho programme
and pageantry of the opening exer
cises will, of course, bo less ostenta
tious than our too boastful salutation
to the “crumbling monarchies” of
Europe and Asia, and the sappy
■Republics of South America, in
the year of politiqal disgruce,
with a fraudulent President
-1870, But, notwithstanding the ab
senoo of State and National appro
priations, and tho less solid but not
unimportant, enthusiasm oxcitod by
a great historic Centennial adversa
ry, the management have faith in its
permanent success and usefulness.
Tho energy and boldness of those
who have undertaken this vast enter
prise cannot bo too much admired.
The requisite funds have been sub
scribed, and those who have the
matter in charge will have profited
by the palpable blunders of last
year, and all arrangements will be
more complete than they havo been
at any former Exposition. The dis
plays of foreign countries will neces
sarily bo less prominent than they
were last year, but Eranoe, Brazil,
Japan, and England and her colonies,
will becreditabiy represented. The
plan of arrangement with reference
to nationality will bo abandoned,
and tho exhibits will bo grouped in
classes representing various arts and
industries. Tho advantages or this
distribution will be at once appareut,
for the visitor will be able to compare
and study any special manufacture
or art with much better advantage
than when he was compelled to go
from one independent show to an
other in order to make a comparison.
Space will be allowed to all exhibi
tors free of charge, but they will be
required to pay a tax of ten per cent,
ou all sales, for the purpose of de
fraying the current expenses of the
Exposition.
That it has been possible to till the
large exhibition building with inter
esting and valuable exhibits, is re
markable, when we remember that
this building covers an area of pre
cisely twenty acres, or a space just
1,000 times as large as a hall of 00x140
feet. Tho admission fee has been
fixed at 25 cents, and the doors will
be closed on Sundays.
There will bo among the attrac
tions two immense aquaria, one con
taining salt water, and the other
fresh water, will be stocked with
fishes and marine animals.
Tt is designed to make Memorial
halt an Art Museum, after the order
of the Kensington Museum, in Lon
don, and, while it may be almost a
century before it reaches the mature
perfection of its great pattern, there
t is reason for congratulation i^the
excellent beginning that has been
made.
Last year the attention of visitors
was so much occupied with the won
ders in the centenuial grounds that
many of them omitted to see the
most oomplete zoological garden on
this side of the water, but I mention
It now only to roinark that Philadel
phia has built and stocked it, all in
the short period of four years.
Among the Improvements that will
edify visitors will be street curs pro
filed by steam; in spito of cavil,
objections that they will reduce the
price of horses, they may now be
considered an established successs,
and steps have been taken to intro
duce them In other cities.
I neglected to mention that there
will be no charge for. admission to
Memorial hall or Horticultural hail,
and that the boautlful flower lawns
In front of the latter will be kept in
frfect cultivation at the expense of
the city.
To what use Machinery hall will
finally be dedicated is not at present
known, farther than that the Frank
lin institute will use a section of its
vast space for an annual exhibition
of machinery. Other buildings, such
as the English government houses,
the Japanese villa, and the German
Imperial Pavillion which were pre
sented by their several governments
to the State of Pennsylvania, will re
main among tho free attractions, and
if the Permanent International Ex
hibition can survive the calamity of
its long name, it will doubtless prove
a success. C. A. S.
No Occupation. —We recently read a
sad letter from an ambitious young man.
He had been niisfortunate in some re
spects, but life lay before him, and he was
ambitious; he experienced, however, a
double misfortune in this world, in which
there is so much to do. Irorn not knowing
how to do anything. My father, he wrote,
did not think it wortli while for me to
learn any trade or business. lie had been
thrown on Ids own resources, and, al
though now a man in statute aud years,
ho was a mure infant in his capacity to
cam a living, llow awkward! What a
misfortune! Yet such cases frequently
come under our observation : and they
)ea<l us to look upon the culpability as
very great, of [any parent who brings tip
aeon without having him practically and
thoroughly instructed in some way of
earning an honest living. Every man
shouluhave some profession or trade;
should know how to do something.—
Then, whether he steadfastly pursues it
or not, lit; has at least an occupation to
which, in an emergency, he may resort,
for the support of himself and others
who may be dependent upon him. A
practical know-nothing is greatly to be
pitied in this practical world.— N. Y.
Ledger.
Nrnulur limitli tin the Mouth.
Senator Booth has returned to San
Francisco, and to a reporter of the
yhronlele thus expressed himself;
"I think the South very generally
will support tho present policy of the
President. There is a large element
there, the Old Line Whigs, who will
be on the side of the Administration,
and also a large number, probably a
majority, of t he Southern Democrats.
With them Mr, Tilden was not per
sonally popular; and, furthermore,
many of this same class do not look
upon the Democracy of the North
with any great degree of favor, as
they are inclined to believe that the
Northern Democrats assisted them
to precipitate the war and then de
serted them. As wo said before, the
President’s policy is looked upon
with great satisfaction, and some of
his warmest friends will be from the
Mouth. To be sure, there are some
’sore beads,’ but these are, perhaps,
extremists, aud their dissatisfaction
is contained in the appointment of
Key apd Bchurz; and, besides, Mr.
Uonkliug, it is supposed, does not
look favorably upon the appointment
of Mr. Evarts. As to your question
about Louisiana matters, these are
not in suoh a condition as to enuble
any one to venture any decided opin
ion, but undoubtedly a satisfactory
solution will be reached. The with
drawal of tho troops from the State
House would be one solution. To
the untutored tnind, it might seem
that the recognition of the Nicholls
Government would imply that the
President did not receive the Elec
toral vote of that State, but you must
bear in mind that be was elected by
the judgement of a Court. In South
Carolina the Democrats themselves
acknowledged that Hayes received a
majority, though claiming Hamp
ton’s election.”
No llemorratlc Fllekrrlntc.
Special to the Cincinnati Gazette.]
Tho members of the Louisiana
Commission express the opinion that
there will be no Southern Democratic
votes east for a Republican Speaker.
They expect general support for the
President from many Democrats for
all measures related to his Southern
golicy, but tho organization of tho
louse is suoh a machine of party
power as they do not feel at all dis
posed to deprive themselves of. The
opinion of the members of the com
mission upon this question is regard
ed here us of great significance, as
they have been so intimately associa
ted for several weeks with the very
men whom it was thought would be
among the foremost to give the Presi
dent the support of their votes if
necessary.
According to the Almanack ae
Ootlia , tho number of towns in the
world which contain 100,000 inhabi
tants or more amounts to 196. Of
these, 48 are in the British empire,
15 in Germany. 9 in Franoe, 7 in Rus
sia, and 15 in the United States. The
cities containing a million inhabi
tants or more are reckoned at nine
in number, London, of course, lead
ing the way, Paris coming second,
and New York plus Brooklyn third.
Berlin is fourth aud Vienua fifth on
the list, each of those capitals having
rather more than a million of inhabi
tants. Four Chinese cities -Canton,
Slangtan (Houman,) Siangfou
(Chensi,) and Tehauteheoufou (Fou
kian)—complete the list of the mil
lionaire cities, if the expression may
be permitted. Pekin, by the way,
which ourfathersoredited with a pop
ulation of 4,000.000, is now understood
to have about 500,000 inhabitants.
The last number of Harper’s Lazar
has an exhilarating cartoon
representing a fond wife standing by
the bedside of her dying husband.
.She remarks to the doctor: "Y’es;
he’s been a-lingerin’ and a-lingerin’,
till now the office where he had his
life insured has busted.” This is
equal to the observation of the moral
philosopher -that he neverattempted
to buck against a life insurance com
pany, because a man always had to
die to win the game.

Education at the Voice.
No* York Tribune.
The ordinary American voice sorely
lacks compass and variety. In clearness
of tone, and free and animated delivery,
the American usually excell* the English
speaker; but he falls behind the latter in
depth, richness and varied intonation.
Foreigners have noticed tho same pecu
liarity in the voice* of our women, which
are clear and strong, but pitched 100 con
stantly upon the same key. The only
model of many of our political speakers fs
apparently the revival preacher, and noth
ing is more common than to hear an ex
cellent nddrens almost ruined by an artifi
cial style of delhreiy. Our best orators
havo in variably cultivated the habit ai
using the deeper chest tones, through the
development of which the true power and
compass or the voice can only he attained.
In the “Rules tor Declamation,” which
Goethe wrote for the training of actors at
Weimar Theater, he says: “The greatest
necessity is, that the actor suould utter
everything lie declaims in as deep a tone
ns possible; for tie thereby reaches a great
compass of voices, and with it the power
of giving all shades of expression But if
lie begins on a higli pitch he soon loses
the habit of n deep masculine tone and
with It the true expression ot what Is lofty
and intellectual.
The proper use of the voice should be
taught in connection with the pronuncia
tion of the language. It is absurd to refer
the shrill or nasal voices of many Ameri
cans to the ettect of climate; as well might
the same reason be given for the sharp a
of the Pennsylvanian or the lost rof the
Virginian. Nasal voiees are very common
in some parts of England, but the educa
ted classes there havo inherited, through
generations of culture, a deeper and more
flexible larynx than ours. Vocal habits
are most easily caught by children, and
unlearned with most difficulty by men.
Yet, certainly, the voice being next to the
brain the vehicle of the orator’s power, it
should he forged, and shaped, and temper
ed with the same patience and craft as
the cliieltan’s sword. We are glad that
this subject is at last forcing itself upon
the attention of the faculties of our .-ol
leges. There will probably bo some dif
ficulty, for awhile to come, in finding
competent instructors. The men who pos
sess tlnely-develofied voices, and are thus
able to give precept and example together,
are rureiy willing to relapse into peda
gogues. President Gilman of tho John
Hopkius University, we understand, in.
lends to establish a chair ot Reading and
.Speaking, as indispensable to a thorough
ly-orgainzed institution of learning. But
the same course ought to lie adopted by
every Normal School in the country, in
order to reach the great multitude of young
pupils. Although a great deal ot what
the latter receive is worn off by careless
home habits, some little always sticks;
and the poor boy or girl who approaches
ttie door of Society later in life will find
it beset with fewer terrors. Even well
pronounced and agreeably modulated
ignorance is much more tolerable than
when it reaches us through the nose and
accompanied by double negatives.

The novel enterprise of transporting
steamers across the continent has
been successfully carried out withiu a lew
weeks. In October, 1870' Geo. H. Brad
bury, President of the Occidental and
Oriental Steamship Company, made a
contruct with Fletcher, Harrison & Cos.,
of this city, for the construction of two
side-wheel steamboats, each of tfie fol
lowing dimensions: Keel, 210 feet; beam,
82 feet: depth of hold, 10J feet. Each
was toimve two boilers, one vertical beam
condensing engine, with n cylinder 50
inches in diameter and 11 feet lengtb of
stroke. The contract provided that the
Hulls, machinery and joiner work should
be built and fitted together here, and that
when completed the boats should be
taken to pieces and shipped by rail to
San Francisco, and there pot together
again. In accordance with their agree
ment, Fletcher, Harrison & Cos., early in
March forwarded the hull and machinery
of the first vessel, and they have since
dispatched the hull and machinery of the
second, with Ihe joiner-work of both. The
boilers fur the second boat were delivered
in Jersey City about a week ago, and are
now on the way to San Francisco. The
entire weight of the vessels and machin
ery as shipped was about 800 tons. The
four boilers were completed before ship
ment and taken on locomotive trucks to
Buffalo whence they were transferred to
Lovell flats, upon which they were trans
ported without change to their destina
tion.
