fell across the doorway, striking his
face on a chair, cutting and bruising it
pretty badly, and almost closing one
eye, which, however, fortunately for
him, was the blind one. ;He was forced
to wear a green abade over it for sev¬

The Day After New Year’s.

A Scotchmans lost Bonds.
A novel and interesting case has
;entleman, while travelling by rail in
hs native country, in 1876, lost hi#
portmanteau, containing $500,000 in
bonds of various nations, among which
were $5,000 in United States 6 per
cent, coupon bonds. Some time ago
the police of Scotland arrested two
men and one woman upon suspicion of
having stolen the portmanteau. Upon theft
being arraigned they confessed the
and related a singular story about the
disposition of the property. They read, ex¬
plained that, not being able to
they were not aware of the value of the
papers, and fearing to retain them they
were burned. A relative of the. Scotch¬
man, residing in this country, now
comes forward with an application for
the issue of duplicates for the bonds
stolen, a full description of which is
given. Similar applications to Euro¬
pean Governments, whose bonds w«re
among those alleged to have been
burned, have the been records granted. of the A Scotch tran¬
script from forth these and

lost the bonds. The First thorough Comptroller

the United States Treasurer in order to

When those particular bonds are called
for redemption the amount will be paid

regularly draw the interest.
The Treasury Accounts.
The Senate committee appointed to
investigate the method of treasury
bookkeeping, of which Senator Davis,
of West Yirgina, is chairman, has taken
a considerable amount of testimony
among employees in the Treasury De¬
partment and others. To-day Senator
Davis obtained an order from the
Senate for the printing of this testi¬
mony. The testimony is regarded as
private by members officially of the communicated committee,
and will not be
by them in advance of the formal re¬
port of the committee to the Senate,
It is learned, however, at the Treasury
Department taken that the of testimony which and
has been is importance,
entirely sustains the assertions several made by
Senator Davis in his speeches
on the method and manner of treasury
istration. bookkeeping The during the Grant understood admin
testimony is
to show that between two and three
thousand alterations, erasures, inter¬
lineations, &c., were made on the books
of the Treasury and during principally the Grant ad¬
ministration, if not
wholly during the period that Mr.
Boutwell was Secretary of the Treasu¬
ry. It has been proved that Mr. Allison,
when register of the treasury, refused
to force balances on the books of his
office, until directed by Secretary
Boutwell in writing to make certain
entries. Items reaching to as high a
figure as $6,000,000 have been found
on one set of books, when they -did not
appear on another similar set. What¬
ever work has been accomplished by
the committee has been through great
tribulation, apparently, as one or more
of the Republican members have never
appeared desirous and to it have has sessions been of
the committee, very
hard to get them together.
THE OHIO GOVERNMENT.
A friend of Senator Thurman in a
position to know says that it is not cer*
tain but that Mr. Thurman *will be

Baltimore Sun.
Ex-Secretary Usher says that he once
spoke to Mr. Lincoln on the danger of
assassination. “Lincoln was too care¬
less,” he adds. “He would go out of
his house at night and walk over to the
War Department, where Staunton was
receiving said dispatches, unattended. I
to him :. “Lincoln, you have uo
business to expose yourself in this way.
It is known that you go out at mid¬
night and return here sometimes at 2
o'clock in the morning from the War
Department. It would be very easy to
kill you.’ The President replied that
if anybody desired to assassinate him
he did not suppose any amount of caie
would save him.”
