BATUUDAY MAY 16, 1833 I t'lL t II - M-.-M. - U the SallcE'i An official at Washington who has . tmn engaged in counting tha cash in thn treasury vault furnishes some in teresting information about the imount and "weight thereof. There is 19,000,000 in silver in lags, each con taining $1,000, weighing fifty-nine ftoundf) and three ounces, so $100,000 In silver would pull down the halance et almost three tons, and l,OoO,000 Vould be nearly 60,000 pounds. The rntire amount of coined silver now in the treasury vaults, it is estimated, will weigh 63,700 pounds. A pound of gold coin weighs 240 pounds, 8180, 000 of it weighs a ton. There are nearly twelve tons of gold fives, tens and twenties in the country's strong box at tljo Treasury, Of the paper money, ,. too, there is an enormous amount One hundred and fifty mil lions of dollars are (n (ivo, two and one dollar bills. About seven of these bills iBpanure a yard in length, so that fc greenback belt that would reach around the world almost twenty times tould be made of the United States . currency row in the vaults and in cir culation.' The money, of course, is not counted coin by coin. ' The gold and . fcilyer is weighed very carefully on the finest and most accurately fitted scales that were ever made. , Though lOOO ' pounds can bo weighed at a time, a pin placed on the balance will tip it. The President has appointed E. O. Graves, Chief of the Bureau of En graving and Printing. He will have 1200 subordinates under him. Mr. Craves is a Mugwump, in the fullest tense of the term, and will make an admirable officer. Tho Oregonian's accusation that there would be no more mugwump appointments save that of Pearson, was false, and that paper must have known it when it repeated the charge this week. . The Mugwumps having taken "pot-luck" with the Democracy have and will re ceive equal Attention from the Preni -dent they elected.' And it is fair that they should. Senator John Bherunn arrived in California the first of the week. A Domocratio Legislature of Ohio a few day before his departure for this coast ' tendered Mr. Sherman a reception, a rare compliment as it is rarely be- ' stowed. But the chances are that Mr. I Sherman, despite his national rputa i tion and great ability, will be retired, even if the Legislature should he Re publican, in favor of Calico Charley 3 Foster, a shifty tricky, politician i In the interest of good legislation we I'bopethatii a Republican is to be 'elected, it may be Sherman. A produce dealer informs us that ''kutyear his firm sold in Portland 115,000 pounds of oleomargarine umdthat altogether 500,000 pounds must have boon disposed of it in Port' Mind to the retailer He . says that nearly every grocer in town dealt in ' the vile compound, and that nearly all " i hotels, restaurants, coffee houses, eta, bought it exclusively. The wholesalers I bought oleo. at from 13 to 13 cents a 1 pound and sold it for 23, thus making a handsome profit and keeping Oregon " butter entirely out of the market . Portland Welcome. It is significant of the changed and changing views of manufacturers on our present tariff, that the Sclenting American, a papo largely circulating among manufacturers, which has al ways advocated a high tariff is pub lishing articles occasionally of a tariff reform tendencies. It mentioned the fact a fow weeks ago that in I860 the exports of the United States to Chili comprised 21 per cent of the imports of that country against 4 per cent in 1884. The tariff works injury to all, and the raon for whose benefit it was made, are finding it out' Tha fact that England, a free trade country, pays its laborers nearly twice at much as her neighbor, France, a country with a protective tariff . in controvertible, and withal England has distanced France and is the first manufacturing nation in the world to day, Protectionists, do not answer why things are thusly for tha reason that they cannot From the present prospects it would look as if tha wheat crop of tho U. S for 1885, would fall 100,000,000 bush els short of last year'a crop. A good price for wheat is one of the contingen cies that the farmers would not view twith dismay, There hare been fewer applications in proportion to tho voCrs cait for ClfTf'siiJ, for offices from the South ern States, than from any other sec tion, . Tho application of the children of Judg'i Win. Strong, the First Juo'go of the Supreme Court of Washingon Territory, to have a guardian appointed to look after the property, on the ground that the old gentleman is not of sound mind, was rejected by Judge Moreland. Evidence was adduced during the trial to show that the old man's temper watf exceedingly violent, and that at times he made it exceed-, ingly tropical for the young folks. As the court has decided that the judge has sense enough to look after himself and his own afiaii-s, it only remains for those of hu children who cannot net along with him to stay out of his way. The first greenback tl note struck off is owned by Edward Slocum, of the township of New Richmond, Allegany county, Michigan. It is dated Aug ust 1, 1862, marked series A, No. 1. Mr. Slocum is a soldier in , the army and the bill in question , was paid to him by the paymaster as part of his wages as a hoy in blue. The green backs wore a novtlly to the "boys" at that time, as they had previously been paid off in gold and silver coin. In looking over his bills Slocum noted the fact that he had No. 1, and he put it away carefully, being determined to preserve it lie will not sell it for any price. We take the following from the New York Herald of May 9th: "Vice Pres ident Hendricks well leave in a fow weeks for an extended tour in the new Northwest He will spend some time in San Francisco, and from there will go up into Oregon and Washington Territory. Mr, Hondricks some time ago promised to deliver an address at tho Yale jCollego commencement, but he has written asking to be ex cused from keeping the engagement." The Vice President will receive a cor dial welcome from the people cf Ore gon and Washington, Elections are to be hold this year in the States of Connecticut, Iowa, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Penn sylvanio, Rhode Island and Virginia. Of these, Connecticut, Kentucky, New Jersey, New York and "Virginia went Democratio in last year's election, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan, Penn sylvanio, Ohio and Rhode Island were Republican. . The recent sudden death of a son of one of the professors of the Columbia University, Washington, was accounted for bylhe physicians who investigated the case, by the youth's habit of per sistent cigarette smoking. The pri. mary cause of death was artio reur gitation, which had been increased by the ir.halemcnt of cigarette smoke. Major General Irwin McDowell died in San Francisco at midnight on tho 5th Inst. He was sick for some time, and was attended in his last moments by his wife, son and daughter. Gen. McDowell was commander of the Army of the Potomao during the first battle of Bull Run, and was a promt nont union general during the civil war. A Kentuckian gives the following glowing description of his trip abroad: "I landed in Liverpool at night, went to bed, had a good rest, got vp in the morning, found the bar, called for an American cocktail, got it, took one taste andreturned home in the next steamer. Thjs country is good enough for me. ; England by granting every Russian demand has gained a precarious peace. The American preas is not now nearly so rampant for war, since the prospect for a fair price for grain has dawned on their vision flnnrra) T.
