A DISCREPANCY.
A discrepancy has been discov
ered between the tann bill as en
rolled and passed by the house
and conference report. It apears
the errors are not substantial, and
relates to the numbering of certain
sections. 1 he conference commit
tee in drawing up the report
neglected to make allowance for
tbe action of senate in striking out
the vinegar sections, and carried
the numbers forward. Trivial as
were the errors, thev ifave much
concern to the managers of the
bill, and they are yet in doubt as
to what course shall be pursued.
Hi" cjnterence reinrt cannot be
cli..ii''ed, and it will be found
necebsiirv to correct the errors.
This ill probably have to be done
by loini resolution.
The h.mse has agreed to a cur
rent resolution directing the clerk
ol the house to number consecu
tively the paragraph of the en

IturlfMl Alive For A Ye.ir.
A writer on East India jugglery,
there he tells us of the wou.iei.'ul
trick of having the baby fall down
from the clouds, containing his re
markable narrative on the w onders
of Oriental legerdemain, says : "
It is impossible to fathom
their secrets of working apparent
miracles. These fellows have very
scanty clothing and apparently no
apparatus whatever. 1 have seen
a man throw a number of balls
into the air, each numbered from
one upwards. As each .vent up,
and there was no deception about
their going up, it was seen clearly
in the air getting smaller till it
disappeared from view altogether.
When they were all up, twenty or
more, the operator would politely
ask you which ball you w..nted to
see, and then would shout out at
the top of his voice, 'number one !'
.'number seven !' number fifteen, "
and so on, as nstiucted by the
Siectators, when the ball deman
ded would fall violently at his feet
as though coming ftoni agreat
height. 1 don't know any Anier
ican, English or French sleight-of-hand
performer that could equal
that feat. Then, too, it is an auth
enticated fact that some of these
jugglers, on more than one occa
sion in recent years, have suffered
themselves to be buried alive, and
have been dug out alive and well
after the lapse of a year!"

San I kancisco, ,-ept. 20. The
Examiner ibis morning prints a
vvo-columu interview wiih Egor
D'Lazaretf, a Russian fugitive from

circles Irkutsk, and traveled on

Nikolsa-usk. at the mouth, of tht
Amour river, and on the Pacific
coast of Northern Silieria.
Lazaielf's misfortune dae back
to 1874, when a political outbreak
in the province ol Volga resulted
in the seizure of L'OOO prisoners, in
cluding himself. They were given
no trial nor even told of what the
were accused. He served four
years iuipiisonment, and was
then dralted into the Russian
army before Kars. Later on be
was again arrested and served
another year's imprisonment.
Again, in 1KX4, a politic;.! uprising
in tiie province where he was
practicing law , caused his arrest,
and he was sent, to Siberia for
three years.
Lazarelf said that if once ar
rested, w hether for cause or not, a
