Patrick Boukke and family of five children were all burned to death by fire in their home on the night of the 19th at Cohoes, N. Y. A model New York clerk i-s stat ed to be only nineteen years old, and the list of his achievements includes burglary, embezzlement and forgery. It is staled that llie Indians at lied Cloud agency are about out of provisions, and are becoming un easy, with no immediate prospect ol a supply. Ox the 17th insl., Blaine's resolu tion for a committee to investigate recent election fraud, as amended, was agreed to by the following vote, yeas 5G ; nays G. A call was issued on the lSth by the secretary of the treasury for $10,996,100, being the last of the bonds outstanding under the act of March 3d, 1SG5. The Democracy have found that the best way to answer Blaine is to maintain a masterly silence. Blaine is not Blaine unless he has some one so "sauce back." Dn. Mevl, who some time since robbed thejrravcyard at Zanesville, Ohio, was sentenced the other day to one year's imprisonment, and to pay a fine of $1 000. The secretary of the treasury has authorized the public debt falling due on the lt of January, 1S79, to be paid in coin or currency, as the claimant may prefer.

"We notice among the Senate con firmations under date of the 19th, that our old friend Suiul. A. Rusell, has been confirmed as Indian agent at Apache Agency, New Mexico. George Williams and Benjamin Bonvil, convicts in the Ohio peni tentiary, escaped therefrom on the mortihig of the 19th by scaling the walls of the prieou by means of a rope ladder. Idleness, coupled with poverty, is a great incentive to crime. It is just as necessary that every boy should have a trade as that he should have education sufficient to transact any ordinary business with his fcllow-meu. Omaha Bee. Franks Hall, a large brick build ing iu Kansas City, fronting the public square, fell on the moruing of the 19th with a terrible crash, burving several men iu the ruins.

A new lino of steamers has been established, which will run from Savannah to Cuba. The St. Louis bridge was sold last Friday for $2,000,000. It is safe to say that uo priuter bought it. Gen Grant intended to visit Ireland about Christina:, which will be his last jaunt before his depar ture for India. The business of catching, opening and shipping oysters in Virginia usually gives employment to ten thousand men. The steamer Byzantinc,from Mar seilles for Constantinople, sunk iu a collision on the 19th. One hundred and fifty lives aie supposed to be lost. Judge Valentine was holding District Court at Omaha last week. He was disposing of cases in which Judge Savage was formerly at torney. The House resolution for a hol iday recess was amended in the Senate and adopted, and as it now stands, give a recess from the 20lh of December to the 7th of January. The funeral services over the re mains of the late Minister Taylor, were held at the American legation last Sunday, after which tho body will await transportation to this country. We learn from the Omaha Bee of the lSth that Mrs. George P. Gordon, widow of the inventor of the Gordon printing press, was a passenger on the west bouud train on the 17lh. The agitation among the Russian students at St. Petersburg is increas ing and spreading throughout the empire. The carrying of arms and holding private meetings has been prohibited. A special to the N. Y. Sun from Cincinnati says Archbishop Purcell and his brother Edward are unable to repay the moneys deposited by by Catholic friends. Their notes have gone to protest. Uncle William Scott, a colored man, at present a resident of Balti more, it is stated with a very fair show of truthfulness, has attained to the wonderful age of 149 years, and is still in apparent good health. The death of Minister Bayard Taylor was telegraphed from Berlin on the 19th December, 1S7S, which occurred at 4 o'clock p. in. He had been out of bed, and had transacted business with American officials. Fatal symptoms came on suddenly, and his death was peaceful and painless. The dressing of fur skins was once carried on iu Albany, N. Y., but it appears now to be a lost art in that place, as it is stated that all seal skins now used in thiscountry arc dressed in England. Alaska seals are shipped to England, to be returned at heavy duty. The cotton crop this year iu Nurth Carolina was very good and of a superior quality, owing to im proved methods of farming that arc coming into use. The sales of cot ton iu Raleigh have been much larger and more active this year than at auy period since the war. There appears to be no anxiety on the part of senators to serve on Blaine's investigating committee. Blaine declines, to serve as chairman, feeling that he can deal with evi dence taken more freely outside of the committee. All members of the senate judiciary committee have de clined to act. The citizens of Omaha arc rejoic ing at their fair prospect of obtain ing an other railroad, which iu all probability will terminate at that city. This road is known as the Chillicothc extension of the St. Loui, Kansas City and Northern railway, which iu length will be on ly about two hundred miles. It is alleged in army circles that Lieut. Blair of the U. S. Army had, at the time of his recent marriage with Mrs. Granger, an other wife, and children living in Scotland. Steps are being taken to prosecute him for bigamy, aud to court niar tiat him for conduct unbecom ing an officer aud a gentleman. When akcd for an explanation of the sudden fall iu gold at New York, it is ttated that Register Mcrscreans said "it is very simple. It costs 2 per cent, to carry gold. While currency is worth 2 per cent, it is cheaper to sell it even at par than it is to keep it. That is the secret. The only party that can afford to carrv it is the government." Gov. Garber has issued a procla mation offering $200 reward for the capture of the parlies who barbar ously murdered Mitchell and Ketch urn in Cusler county. Two hun dred dollars being the highest re ward allowed by law, the governor in his forthcoming message will leconimend to the legislature an appropriation of $10,000 for the con viction of these men. The Sioux City Journal received a dispatch the other day from the Indian agent at the Yankton agency that the story that about seventy Indians left the agency in pursuit of food is entirely false. Some Indisns got a permit to go below aud some stragglers fell out of line on their return aud imposed upon the whites. At the agency they are well fed aud clothed and are doing well. Senator Paddock on the 17th called up the bill recently reported from the committee on military af fairs to amend the posse comitatus clause of the army appropriation bill for the preseut fiscal year, and amendments were agreed to so as to include the states of Nebraska, Kau sas, Colorado, Oregon, Nevada and the territories subject to Indian in surrection. The bill then passed. The case of James E. Whalen against General Sheridan, pending in the U. S. Circuit Court iu New York, for the recovery of damages for the seizure of Whalen's plantation in Louisiana in 1SG7, returned a verdict on tho 20th in favor of the defendant. At tho time General Sheridan made the order he was the military Governor of the situation. A motion will be made for a new trial. Great destitution and suffering exist in portions of England, and Scotland has her share of suffering poor. At Birmingham means for raising and distributing relief had been adopted. At Sheffield 2,000 children and 3,000 adults received aid last week. At Stockton the distress is great and on the increase. At Glasgow the distress is unexam pled. The streets are swarming with idle and starving people. The Chicago Tribune has a special from Washington City, of recent date which states that Virginia has again introduced the whipping-post, and public whippings in Alexandria, almost in sight of the National Cap itol are of frequent occurrence. Moses Ford, a colored man, was recently arrested for stealing, and was publicly whipped at Norfolk the other day, and he became so op pressed with a sense of shame, that immediately after he got home, pro cured his gun, shot himself in the head, blowing away a part of his skull and scattering hi brains over the ground. A resolution was adopted in the House the other day asking the sec retary of the interior to report why the Chcycnncs who were engaged in the late massacres in Kansas, and depredations in this State have not been surrendered to the State au thorities for trial. This is a very proper question to ask Mr. Scliurz, and one that deserves to be answered with considerable more alacrity than the secretary has chosen to ex hibit. If he is not willing to trans fer the Indians to the management of the War department, he must not stand in the way of just punishment for their fiendish crimes. Judge Hilton of New York, it appears from recent correspondence published in the newspapers, can not, by offers of contribution of money, buy back the good feelings of the Hebrews of New York City, which he so signally forfeited when he issued his edict prohibiting them from occupying rooms in the Grand Union Hotel, Saratoga, in the sum mer of 1S77. The Judge writes Mrs. Stewart desires to contribute $500 to the funds of the Mount Sinai Hocpital. Your treasurer can have this amount by calling upon me with this letter any afternoon after 2 o'clock. It is highly proba ble that the treasurer will not call. Later accounts from Berlin speak briefly of the funeral services of Minister Bayard Taylor, which took place on the 23d at 2 o'clock. An aide-de-camp, Count Lehendarf, rep resented the Emperor; Major Von Parmaritz represented the Crown Prince and Count Von Busiow and. Count Philipshorn, of the foreign office. All ambassadors were pres ent. The funeral procession was followed by two six-horse carriages belonging to the Emperor and Em press, the carriage of the Crown Prince and a number of private car riages, and many mourners. A dense crowd of people lined the streets through which the pi occasion passed. One of The Twin BCelics. It is not an uncommon belief that all "Mormons,"or Latter Day Saints, arc polygamists, but such is by no means the fact. The original ad herents to the doctrines of the Book of Mormon, and the more intelli gent of the church as at present con stituted are not polygamists, in theory or in practice, but are heart ily aud eutirely opposed to it, and uone, so well as they, understand the enormity of the evils hid under the cloak, Polygamy. Outside of the territory of Utah there are but few polygamists, and to-day there is no class of people in the United States who have done more effectual work against the "Asiatic barbarity" than the Joseph Smith Mormons. An address delivered at Syracuse by Hon. Schuyler Colfax, in Sept. last, aud recently published, has served to attract fresh attention to the subject, which with slavery, the Republican party at its organization denounced as twin relics of barbar ism. Among other things Mr. Col fax shows that the practice of polygamy was a parasitic growth, a fraud palmed off upon the too-credulous, and that the Book of Mormon is as severe iu its denunciation of polygamy, as the laws of the United Slates are. The history of the conflict in Utah between the United States authori- j tics and the law-breaking, law-defy - ing polygamists, is full of deep interest, and will doubtless be read and re-read until the public opin ion of the nation will be so roused to action that the system will be wiped out of existence. Such a result, we are confident, is most ardently desired by the great body of people in the United States, aud by none more 60 than the fol lowers of Joseph Smith, the True Latter Day Saints. To this result the original Republicans are pledg ed, aud that pledge, for one, we feel like seeing made good. For tbe Journal. The Price of lVlicnt. During the past week I have heard many farmers complain of the low price of wheat. It struck tne that iu the last ten years wheat had, two or three times, been as low, or nearly so, as at the present time. In looking over the rates paid in Chicago, for December, the past ten years, I find the following prices: In Dec. Price. IbCS $1.17 to $1.18 1S09 1870. 1871. 1872 . 1S73 1874. 1875 . 187(5 1H77 . 1878.

Taking gold as a basis of values, wheat iu the years 1SG9 and in 1874, was lower than it is now. There are some 5,000,000 bushels of wheat in store in Chicago, now, the largest on record, and the prospect of a foreign demand is peculiarly gloomy, as the business of the coun tries to which we have been ship ping is badly crippled, and the laboring classes are idle, and are unable to purchase at any price. With these facts before us, should the farmer wait for a higher price before selling? This is a question difficult to answer. About four weeks ago it was asserted that Eastern and Western capitalists had combined for the purchase of the better grades of spring wheat. This, no doubt, was a fair business transaction as fairness now goes. The above table shows that the average monthly price of No. 2 spring wheat for December is fLOG per bushel. I find that the average price for the same wheat for the month of April for the past ten years is $1.22,s' per bushel. From this it would appear that the farmer would be safe iu faking the chances of an advance in the price of wheat. I give you this to show what I conceive to be the only method of looking at the chances of wheat being worth more than 55 cts. per bushel, in Columbus, within the next four months. x. y. iiiBiiiiijij "m ZVcwriunii dii'orc.
