AS AMERICAN SINGER.

er Struggles and Triumphs—The \Ate andAdventures of Emmft AVbott.

In 1854, a poor music teacher, with asad face, sat in the Peoria, 111., depotconsoling a sick wife and a group ofrestless children. The father, hoping;o better his condition, had left the busycity of Chicago and brought his littleflock of helpless children with him.Among the children was a little, brightour-year old girl. They called her Em-

ma. The little thing, surrounded by)overty, sang and hummed and prat-led, for, like her father, she was fond of

music. The poor music teacher movedinto a little woodeu house on the hill,and, after a while, Providence putmough pupils in his way to keep pover-ty from his door. At night Mr. Abbottcame home tired and discouraged) but;he warblings and happy chatter of lit-le Emma cheered him up. From herearliest infancy the little child had takenntense delight in music. A song or an)rgan in the street would draw the littlehrng hungry from the table. A touch)n a guitar would set her in ecstasy. Athe age of six little Emma had dreams ofinging in public. At six she was con-

stantly singing about the house,catching every tune she heard her father)lay, 8nd at nine, to the surprise ofsverybody, she began to play tho guitaraerself. She became so proficient with;he guitar, and created so much talkamong the neighbors, that her fatherthought he would better his circum-stances by bringing her out with her lit-le brother George in a concert in Pe-

oria. The night came. The littlething, not much taller than her guitar,mazed and delighted the audience. Her

debut was so successful that her fatherresolved to take her on a concert tour.Phis he did, and the child singer ap->eared hundreds of times before de-ighted country audiences before she wasihirteen years old. At the age of thir-teen little Emma was invited to visitsome school friends at Mount Pulaski,not a great way from Peoria. While;here, knowing the poverty of her fatherand wishing to surprise him with moneyearned entirely by herself, she resolvedo get up a concert " on her own book."r5he went to the Pulaski printing officein short dresses, got trusted for herown handbills, and then went andposted them around town herself. On>ne of these handbills now before me is

printed : il 11

Miss Abbott will sing "The MerrySwiss Girl," a chorus !

The little girl didn't know what achorus meant, but it looked nice, and soshe had it put on the bill. She drewquite a house; took $10, and took $7lome to her mother. Her father now>ecoming sick and discouraged, littleimma went down to Lincoln, sang in aichool house, and then came home tofive guitar lessons at twenty cents peresson to pay her own tnition in a select

school. At fif teen little Emma secureda class of twenty poor children, whocame to recite at her mother's house.Dn Sundays she sang in the Hebrewsynagogue — a kind old rabbi, Marxfioses, teaching her to pronounce inHebrew and German.

The spring of her sixteenth birthday'ound Emma's father poorer than everaefore, and the little woman, tolelp her mother, tried to secure

clerkship in a store, but failed.•She saw her father sick t and dis-couraged, her mother sick, and broth-ers and sisters hungry. In the midst oftier great distress she heard of a schoolnine miles from Peoria which needed ateacher. Thither she went on footthrough the mud and slush. She foundthe principal trustee, a kind old man, atdinner.

"What do ycu want, my little wo-man ?" asked the old farmer, as he laiddown his knife and fork to survey ourlittle heroine.

" I live in Peoria, sir, and I'vewalked "

"What! walked, child? w-a-1-k-o-d I"interrupted the old man in astonish-ment, p i l

" Yes, sir; and I want to teach yourschool."

"Well, I declare! But, my child,there are fifteen applications in ahead ofyours."

" But I don't think that any of themneed it as bad as I do," said Emma.

" No, and you are tho smartest-lookin'one in the whole lot, and as plucky asJulius Osesar. Have you got your cer-tificate t"

" No, sir," faltered Emma.• "Well, my girl, if you've walked nine

miles through this mud and slush you'lldo to teach school for me. Sit up andhave some dinner!"

Emma began the school the next week,won the respect of the parents and thelove of the children, and in four monthstook $40 back to her mother in Peoria.

After school closed, Emma, assistedby her father, gave her first large concertin Peoria. Quite a number of amateursassisted her, Rouse hall was filled, thepeople cheered, and her poor father andmother received $100. This was all usedby her father and mother, except $3.With this amount in her hand, she left

her father sick at home and started forRock Island, to visit a young lady friendwho thought she might get up a concertin Rock Island. She found her younglady friend absent and her money dwin-dled to twenty cents* gm

"What shall I do?" Bhe said to her-self, almost disheartened. Then a newthought seized her. She rememberedher father had once taught music in afamily of the name of Deer, who livedover the Mississippi viral m Moline."Mr. Deer will surely help me," shesaid, '' and I will get up a concert there."

Ten cents took Emma to Moline, butMr. Deer was absent. Mrs. Deer, acrotchety-faced oid woman, was verycross. She looked insinuatingly atEmma, and said;

"Ido'i 't know what a pretty youngwoman like you wants of my husband.I guess he hain't got no time to foolaway getting up concerts."

Just then Miss Abbott spied the piano,and asked if she might play something. Ina moment sho was warbling a sweet song.The old woman listened, then droppedher dishes, wiped her hands on herapron, and came and looked over herglasses in astonishment. Just then Mr.Deer entered.

" By Jove, Matilda, that's nice singin',"he exclaimed. "Who's doin' it?"

" My name is Emma-—Emma Abbott,sir. Father used to teach——"

'' Thunder, yes! I remember Mr.Abbott; but what are you doin' hero?What "

"Well, pa and ma are very poor now,and I've come here to see if you'd helpme get up a concert." fl'JJMW

"Help you? Why, of course I will.You shall have our church. You're abrave girl, and we'll get you up a bighouse."

And she did have it. She got herbills printed, went arotind personallyand announced the concert in theschools, and the house wa? crowded.

The next night Miss Abbott sangagain, and at the end of a week she re-turned to Peoria with $60 in cash.When she showed her money, herastonished mother hold up her hands,and, with joy and sadness in strangecombination, exclaimed :

" Oh, Emma, I hope you haven't beenrobbing somebody ?"

Little Emma was now past sixteenyears old. She saw her father andmother getting pparer every day. Sheknew she had talents, but she had noone to bring them out. Her father wastoo feeble to help her. So she startedon a concert tour through Illinois—•all alone, accompanied by her faithfulguitar. Arriving in a town she wouldannounce her concert in the schools,sometimes with poor success, sometimessuccessfully ; but she was always hope-ful. She always sent home all themoney she did not need to use> AtJoliet a Chicago opera troupe came upbehind her, saw her bills and heard suchpraises from the people that they en-gaged her to sing with them for seventy-five nights through Illinois, Indiana andMichigan, where the troupe broke upand left her out of money.

The next town was Grand Haven. Outof money and 200 miles from home, shedetermined to give one more concertalone and raise money enough to takeher borne. Poor, friendless and dis-couraged, it was to be her last effort.The audience came late, and amongthem was a kind-hearted railroad man,who listened with enthusiasm.

" My child, you have the voice" of anangel!" he said. " You must go to NewYork."

"But I have no money.""Well, I will give you a pass to De-

troit. From there you can sing throughCanada to the Falls, and some way getto New York. Trust «n Providence, andgo and see Parepa. She is in New York.She'll help you,"

With thanks for the advice, and san-guine with hope, little Emma landed thenext day in Detroit, and then crossedover to Canada. Contrary to her san-guine expectations, she found Canada apoor place for her. She stopped at sev-eral towns, but hard luck stared at hereverywhere. Many times she walked,hungry, from place to place, and once,to raise money, she cut off her hair and ,sold it. Music was her love, and sheforgot every discomfort in the midst ofof her beautiful songs.

Once she froze her feet and sang whilethey ached with the intense paia whichfollows. The applause of the audienceovercame hunger, sorrow and even thepains of frozen feet. Her one intensedesire was- to get to New York and seeParepa. On she was wafted toward thebig city. At Lyons, in Wayne county,her money gave out, and she stopped to .sing in a school house. All day longshe went without food. She actuallysang when faint and hungry. With theproceeds she bought a good supper, andcontinued on her way to New York.

After two weeks of singing and hopingand struggling, Miss Abbott finally ar-rived in New York, alone and in thenight, putting up at the Washingtonhouse. The next night she paid her lastmoney for a ticket to tho opera ; but,to her great disappointment, Parepa didnot sing. She finally heard Parepa atSteinway hall, but never succeeded inmeeting her face to face.

Failing to interest any one in her voicein New York, and solicitous for the wel-fare of her father and mother. Miss Ab-bott resolved to return to the West.What could she do? She was out ofmoney, with no friend, except her sweet,bird-like voice. Many a time this voicehad been her salvation before. It hadopened stony hearts: So, borrowing $15from a lady in the hotel, our little wan-derer started for the West. Her moneytook her to Monroe, Mich., where shehazarded everything' in advertising threeconcerts. The nights were stormy, andBhe lost all her money. She could notpay her hotel bill, and tho unfeelinglandlord held on to her guitar. Withtears in her eyes she, left it, and went onto the next town, where slie sang in anioe cream saloon, making money enoughto go back and redeem her guitar. Thiswas one of the moat dismal episodes inMiss Abbott's life. So discouraged wasshe that when a theatrical troupe camealong she was glad to join it for seventynights, to sing in Iowa, Kansas, andeven out among the Nebraska Indians,sending the proceeds to her mother.

Ambitious of success she now tried,with poor luck, three concerts alone inMilwaukee and Chicago. The peoplehad never heard of her wonderful voice,and they would not come out to hearone young lady sing. ~ _^» ,

Her ill success in Chicago and Mil-waukee induced her to try the provin-cial towns again, so little Emma startedfor Plymouth, Ind., where she adver-tised to sing in the parlors of the UnitedStates hotel. The audienco was small,and she had to pawn her gnitarfor $2.50to pay her hotel bill. She also pawnedher concert dress, the only nice dressshe had, to get money enough to go toFort Wayne, Ind., a few miles beyond,

whore she advertised for another concert.The concert was in the parlor of theEvelin House, and having no guitar, sheengaged the nlerk iu the music store toplay her accompaniments. The few whocame were delighted, and her receiptswere $18. With this she went back toPlymouth, redeemed her guitar anddress, and sent $5 to her mother.

With bad luck all around her, and thefuture "almost hopeless, Miss Abbottnow almost gave iip in despair. Thenthe thought that her poor mother andsisters depended upon her impelled herto make one more effort.

" I will go to Toledo," she said, "andmake one more effort and trust in Provi-dence for the rest."

Arriving at Toledo, she advertised tosing in the parlor of the Oliver house.Fate was against her. The small audi-ence, though enthusiastic, did not payexpenses, but the chivalrous landlordrefused to take her guitar.

" No, sir 1" said he, forgetting that hewas addressing a young lady, " GeorgeBrown ain't going to take no young lady'sguitar—and mor'n that, you can stay andtry it again !"

Things now looked dismal enough.Her splendid courage began to give out.Behind her fihe saw nothing but a threeyears' struggle with poverty. The fu-ture looked as black as midnight. Thokindness of George Brown brought tearsto her eyes, but after it came the dread-ful thought of—suicide. The idea of fail-ure in the scheme of her life was dread-ful. That day little Emma went with abursting heart and looke.d off the greatToledo pier, and the thought of jumpingoff struggled in her bosom. Sadly sheturned away. Howe was gone, but shethought of her mother, and love forher still buoyed her up.

Returning to the Oliver house, shecaught a glimpse of Clara Louise Kel-logg, then in the zenith of her fame, butin "a moment she was gone. She disap-peared, with a niece of music, in theOliver house. Following after, littleEmma encountered Miss Kellogg's maid.

" Oh, I do Want to see Miss Kelloggso much!" she exclaimed to Petrilla."Oh, can't I see her?"

"She's just gone in to dinner with hermother, but she Will be out in a mo-ment," answered Miss Kellogg's maid.

In a few minutes Miss Kellogg cameout with her mother.

" I'm Miss Abbott," said little Emma,half frightened, "and I do wish to seeyou so much 1"

"Never mind, come in. What can Ido for you!" asked the kind-hearted MissKellogg.

"I«want you to try my voice. I dothink I can sing, and if you only say soI shall be sure," said little Emma, look-ing up pleadingly with her clear blue eyes

" Why, certainly, my child," said MissKeilogg's mother, who got up and openedthe piano, but seeing little Emma'sshabby dress and wild, sad look, shoheld up her hands and exclaimed :" Why, Louise, where has this poor childbeen wandering?"

In a moment Miss Abbott was singingone of her beautiful ballads, full of na-tive sweetness and pathos. As her mag-ical Voice touched those high, clear noteswhich have since astonished the kingsand princes of Europe, Miss Kellogg'smother sat in mute wonder. The earsof the good mother of the great singerseemed to feast on the clear, sweetstrains ; then she burst out enthusiastic-ally :

"Louise! Louise? Do you hear thatvoice—-how clear—no break there!That's the voice for me 1"

That night Mis Kellogg kin Jly gaveMiss Abbott a letter to Errani, a singingteacher in New York, and money enoughto pursue her studies for for two years.

With tears in her eyes, little Emmathanked her benefactor—the singing an-gel sent by the Lord to lead her out ofcaptivity. Then she came to New York.

A home at Dr. Elder's, two years withErrani, and an engagement to sing inDr. Chapin's Fifth Avenue church at$1,500 a year quickly followed. Sundayafter Sunday that great congregationwas melted by Miss Abbott's magicvoice. Triumph after triumph came,but still beyond she hoped for more.She longed for fame—for recognition.

One day (March 1, 1872) a rich busi-ness man, whose heart was bigger thanhis pocket-book—Mr. John T. Daly,who afterward built the Windsor hotel—sat down in his office and wrote a littlenote to Miss Abbott. It was short, butit was worthy of Mr. Daly, who was al-ways doing piincely things, and it filled•her heart with a flood of joy. Mr. Dalytold her how he admired her talent andrespected her pluck, and that if shewished to go to Milan and study hewould furnish her the money.

" 1 want to go," said Miss Abbott,when the writer talked with her, hereyes all the time beaming with grati-tude. " It is the hope of my life, but Ido not wish to receive so much from oneperson. If the whole congregation willinterest themselves in me how gladly Iwill go."

" Very well," said a leading member,Mrs. George Lake, on the morning ofMarch 20, " I will give $1,000 towardit." Then Mrs. George Hoffman gave$500, Mr. C. P. Huntington $500,'Mr.John Q. Hoyt $500, Mr. E. L. A.Wetheiell $500, Mr. A. J. Johnson$200, some others $100 each, and Mr.Daly made up the rest, all payable to theorder of Mr. D. D. T. Marshall.

On Saturday morning, May 20, 1772,a great crowd of friends with bouquetsand benedictions thronged tho city ofParis to bid God speed to Miss EmmaA. Abbott on her journey across the At-lantic to Milan.

On Miss Abbott's arrival in Milan,Lamperti pronounced her voice a marvel.Nara, to whom Stanley recommendedher, after hearing her sing from "Mig-non," said, " You must quit the music ofAmbroise Thomas and take the grandscores of the masters."

San Giovanni finally became Miss Ab-bott's teacher. Losing her health, shetook a trip to the Mediterannean andback to Paris, where one day she wasinvited to the palace of the Rothschildsby the baroness, who was so enraptnredby her sweet voice that she ombraced herand became her bosom friend. Thevenerable Bolandi, the favonto instruc-tor of Malibran, offered to instruct MissAbbott in Paris, but Delle Sedie, towhom Nilsson recommended her, finallybecame her teacher. When he heard hersing he exclaimed, "Mademoiselle, youwill yet have the world at your feet,"and Wartel, the distinguished Frenchteacher, said, " When she is finished shewill be without a rival in tho world."

Madame La Grange said : " My child,yon are very like Jenny Lind. 3fout-voice is pure, limpid, powerful, sweet,charmante—charmante 1"

Then all Paris became wild about thewandering child from Peoria. AdalinaPatti invited her to her villa, and whenshe sang an aria Patti foldtd her in herarms and said : " I love you because you

love your art, and I see you will becomegreat;"

Then Miss Abbott's fame went beyondParis—t;o London and St. Petersburg.When Franchi, the renowned impressa-rio of St. Petersburgh, heard her singwith Patti he offered her a big price togoto Russia, and Patti said: "Come,my child, with me, and I will be in a boxto applaud your debut and throw youyour first bouquet." But she chose tostay and study with Wartel in Paris.One day Wartel interrupted her singingby exclaiming: " C'est magnifique! Yousing like an angel, little one. You willbe the glory of America!"

A few days ago I picked up the Sunand read this cable dispatch, Mr. Gye,the renowned Covent Garden impressa-rio, having introduced our sweet Peoriawarbler to the most critical court audi-ence of England:

" Miss Emma Abbott made a very suc-cessful debut as Daughter of the Regi-ment at Co vent Garden to-night. Thoughher acting leaves something to be de-sired, sho possesses a voice of greatpower and purity, and is almost perfectin her rendering of the character. Shewas twice recalled after the first act."

And when the big-hearted Christiansin New York read this paragraph—theywho, remembering our Savior, put theirarms around this toiling woman andhelped her up—when they read of herfinal triumph they said, "Verily, it ismore blessed to give than to receive,"and all the world responded, "Of suchis the kingdom of heaven I"

And when little Emma shall one daystand in our Academy of Music, likeNilsson and Titiens and Lucca, her sil-ver voice filling the air like a ohoir ofangels, or hushing the audieuce by aholy repose, then the Church of the Di-vine Paternity will strew the first bou-quets at the feet of her who, loving boththe church and the drama, improves allthe gifts which God has given her.

A MARVEJTOF TATTOOING.A Remarkable Subject from the Hands of

the Skillful Chinese Tartars.[From the New York Sun.]

Capt. George Costentenus, a descend-ant of a noble Greek family, from theprovince of Albania, arrived in NewYork yesterday in the Servia. Fromhead to foot on every inch of his body,including even his scalp and the soles ofhis feet, he is a mass of the most artisticand elaborately colored tatooing, in let-ters, signs, and figures of quadrupeds,birds, fishes, and reptiles. Capt. Cos-tentenus is tall, dark complexioned, ofsuperb physique, and about forty-fiveyears of age. He does not read Eng-lish, but converses fluently in his owntongue, and in the Italian, Arab, Turk-ish, and Persian languages, and speaks alittle French and German, and a fewwords of English. The climate here af-fects him so that he keeps muffled in aeoarse suit lined with fur, with a softTound cap pulled down over his fore-head, and a thick pair of gloves on hishands. His heavy beard only partiallyconceals the tattooing on his weather-beaten face.

Constentenus' early history is that ofmany Albanians. He has always been asoldier of fortune. In 1867 he andeleven others penetrated Chinese Tar-tary and sided with the rebels. Thepaity wore captured, and two or threewere killed, and the rest were submittedto an ordeal of tattooing, which onlytwo survived, Capt. Constentenus and aSpaniard, who has since died. Theoperation lasted three months, and wasperformed daily. Six men held himdown while a seventh wielded thetattooing apparatus. At the conclu-sion of the operation he regained hishealth, and was freed by the Tartars,instead of making his escape, as was re-ported.

This tattooing was done to warn out-side barbarians of the danger of pene-trating the Tartars' domains.

Nothing like tho Captain's person hasever been seen in civilized countries.By the side of his gorgeously embel-lished cuticle the tattooing of South SeaIslanders fades into insignificance. Thematerial used was indigo and cinnabar,the former producing a black and thelatter a red. At a first glance the Cap-tain's body seems to be covered with aTurkish shawl, but a closer examinationshows that the pictures in two colorsare produced by unnumbered points.On his forehead aro animals and inscrip:

tions, and on the face star-like figures.On the h?nds aro numerous red points,and figures resembling sculptures, aswell as long tailed, panther like shapes.The ears are absolutely the only part ofthe body free from tattooing, oven thescalp being embellished. On the neck,chest, abdomen, back, and extremities,the skin is a mass of symmetrically ar-ranged and admirably executed figuresof monkeys, tigers, lions, elephants,peacocks, storks, swans, snakes, croco-diles, lizards, mingled with bows, ar-rows, leaves, flowers, and fruits. Be-tween the figures are words in Berminianin blue and red letters, and simplepoints or stars and circles. The origi-nal skin is invisible. On the palms ofthe hands are indescribabla figures, andlittle figures are on the inside of thefingers. On the back sides of both feetto the toes are blue points, and from thetoes to the nails are red lines. Alto-gether there are 888 tattooed pictureson the entire body—on the forehead, 2 ;neck, 8 ; chest, 56 ; back, 37 ; abdomen,52 ; upper extremities, 101 ; lower ex-tremities, 137—yet the Captain is inperfect health.

The instrument used in tattooing, theCaptain says, was divided into threeparts. The part holding the fluid wasslit like a pen four inches long and aninch and a half wide, coming down brassfour inches long, and on top was a thirdpiece, four inches long, of iron, with aknob at the end. The three parts werejoined by capsules. The instrumentwas inserted between the thumb andforefinger of the left hand to guide it,and the right hand made the punctureswith extreme rapidity.

The Captain has several scars on hisperson as evidence of his numerous en-gagements, and these show plainlythrough the tattooing. Ho has seenevery country in the world exceptAmerica. He is going to the CentennialExhibition.

A NUMBER of gentlemen lately fromthe East were congregated on a streetcorner in San Francisco tho other day,when they saw a two-horse dray loadeddown with what they took to be leadbars, stalled on Montgomery street.Great was their surprise when informedthat the lead bars were silver bricksfrom the Bonanza mines, being taken toFlood & O'brien's bank, and that over ahundred thousand dollars in value wasintrusted to the custody of one man, andhauled around the streets like any othermerchandise.

EUROPE.t he Eaitern Question—Prolipects of a Sec-

6nd Crliiiean War.[From the Chicago Tribune.] .

Is Europe drifting itito war? Twoweeks ago Abdul-Aziz, Sultan of Tur-key, was deposed by a sudden popularrevolution, and Murad Effendi, hisnephew, ascended the throne of Othman.The news was received in England withjubilation. It was regarded as in theinterests of peace, notwithstanding Eng-land's refusal to accept the Berlin agree-ment of the three powers. Under theinfluence of this feeling Turkish securi-ties improved, and the English creditorsfelt easier, while the three great powersthat had met at Berlin remained omin-ously silent. In diplomacy, as in war,radical changes are made in a day.Abdul-Aziz has left a legacy of troubleto his successor. Before he is fairlyupon his throne, he finds himself sur-rounded with the preparations for a greatwar—the Servians and Bulgarians col-lecting their armies and hurrying themto th§ frontier to make commen causewith the other' Sclavcs ; the Black seaswarming with Russian gunboats; theEnglish war vessels steaming across theMediterranean toward the Bosphorus;Greece placing her little army on a warfooting and negotiating a war loan ofmoney.

The relations between Turkey and theChristian insurgents and between Tur-key and the three powers now begin tolose interest as compared with the dis-turbance of the relations between GreatBritain and Russia. If the signs are tobe trusted, the Eastern question loomsup again, and another Crimean war isinevitable, in which England must sidewith Turkey without the co-operation ofFrance, and with Austria and Italy inactive sympathy with Russia.

It is to prevent the absorption of Con-stantinople by Russia, and to seal up theBosphorus against her, that England isnow moving her fleets. Russia, whileostensibly remaining quiet and urging apacific settlement, is in reality engagedin active warfare against Turkey. Servia,Bulgaria and Roumania swarm with heragents, exciting disaffection among thopeople. The Servian troops, whioh arenow ranged on the frontier, are officeredby Russian generals. She holds theSclavie provinces like hounds at theleash, ready to let them slip at the propermoment. She has already many warvessels in the Black sea, and has issuedorders for the construction of manymore. If she can obtain control of theBosphorus, she will not only ha,ve ano.utlet to the Mediterranean, but she willnever again relinquish her hold upon it.Once in possession, she threatens Egypt,compels England to hold Alexandria inorder to defend the Suez canal, andthreatens not only to cut off England'sroute to Asia, but to endanger her Asiaticpossession. Once in possession of tkeBosphorus and locking it up, she holdsAsia at her mercy. She will sweep downtne Euphrates to the Persian gulfthrough Turkey in Asia. She alreadyholds Toorkistan, aud will drive theweak powers—Persia, Cabool and Beloo-cbistan—before her like chaff before thewind, thus reaching the borders of Hin_dostan and threatening British India"All this hangs upon the possession ofConstantinople. The little breeze whichbegan in Herzegovina a year ago hasaow developed in a tempest, and thedreaded Eastern question is forced uponEngland again. Diplomacy may oncemore ward off the conflict; the events ofone day may precipitate it. In case itcomes, the map of Europe must be re-constructed. Roumania, Bulgaria, Con-stantinople, the Bosphorus, all go toRussia; Servia, Bosnia and Montenegroto Austria, forming a colossal Pan-Sclavonic empire; Macedonia and Thes-saly to Greece; Northern Austria to Ger-many, whose cunning Chancellor sitslike a spider in his web, watching theflies buzzing about him. What goes toEngland? She will take Egypt, ifFrance will allow it. Meanwhile, theRussians will be between her and India.There may be another Crimean war, butthis time England will not ha^e France,Italy and Austria to help her. •

Did the Sultan Kill Himself.[From the New York Sun.]

Mankind will be apt to remain in doubtfor some time whether the deposed Sul-tan really committed suicide or whetherhe was assassinated, according to the oldTurkish custom which has been illus-trated even within the present century.It is the official announcement that hecommitted suicide ; but the fact of itsbeing official does not give assurance ofits trustworthiness. The conspiratorsof the Divan had learned that the newsof the strangling of the dethroned sover-eign would not be received with satisfac-tion by the Governments of Europe.The Emperor of Russia had instructedhis Ambassador at Constantinople tolook after the safety of Abdul Aziz, andQueen Victoria had sent similar instruc-tions to the British Ambassador. TheTurkish Minister of Foreign Affairs wasso stirred up by the reports sent abroadon the subject, that he telegraphed totho Turkish representatives at all thecourts of Europe a hasty denial of the" malevolent rumors concerning thedeposed monarch's fate." But it wouldnot be out of keeping with Turkish tra-dition, if at the time this dispatch was sentout, Abdul Aziz had already been dis-posed of. The very day after his de-thronement we received a dispatch,which was immediately contradicted,that he had been suddenly overtaken bydeath. It will be hard to penetrate themysteries of the palace of Tcheragan, inwhich he has been confined since hisoverthrow.

There is doubt that, if he was assas-sinated, tho new Government would de-ny it, and trust to the concealment of thefact.

Whatever may have been the fact, itis certain that Abdul Aziz must havebeen almost distracted by the troubleswhich preceded his dethronement; and,therefore, the account of his suicide isnot entirely incredible.

A Printer's Dream.A printer sat in his office chair, his

boots were patched and his coat thread-bare, while his face looked weary andworn with care ; while sadly thinking ofbusiness debt, old Morpheus slowlyround him crept, and before he knew ithe soundly slept; and, sleeping, hedreamed that he was dead, from troubleand toil his spirit had fled, and that noteven a cow bell tolled, for the peacefulrest of his cow-hide sole. As he wan-dered among the shades, that smoke andscorch in the lower Hades, he shortlyobserved an iron door, that creakinglyswung on hinges ajar, but the entrancewas closed by a red-hot bar, and Satanhimself stood peeping out, and watchingfor travelers thereabout, and with growl-ing voice the echoes woke : " Come in.my dear, it shall coat you nothing ancnever fear; this is the place where ]cook the ones, who never pay their sub

soription sums, for though in life theymay escape, they will find when dead itis too late ; I will show the place whereI melt them thin, with red-hot chainsand scraps of tin, and also where I combtheir heads with broken glass and meltedlead, and if of refreshments theyonly think, there's boiling water forthem to drink ; there's the red-hot grind-stone to grind down his nose, and red-hot rings to wear on his toes, and if theymention they don't like fire, I'll sew uptheir mouths with red-hot wire; andthen, dear sir, you should see themsquirin while I roll them over and cookto a turn." With these last words theprinter awoke, and thought it all a prac-tical joke ; but still at times so real didit seem, that he cannot believe it was alla dream ; and often he thinks with achucklo and grin, of the fate of thosewho save their tin, and never pay thenrin for.printer.Naval Engagement on the Ohio—Two

Men Killed.Our community was shocked, last

evening, at the intelligence of the kill-ing of Maj. A. J. Harrington, DeputyUnited States Marshal, of this city, atMaysville, yesterday afternoon. Maj.Harrington, on Friday last, received in-structions from the clerk of the UnitedStates court at Louisville, directing himto seize the towboat Kate Dickspn, onaccount of some suit brought againsther in that city, process in pursuance ofwhich sho was attempting to evade.When these instructions were receivedthe boat was lying at the Cincinnatiwharf, and outside the jurisdiction ofthe Kentucky Federal court. She re-mained there until about daylight yes-terday morning, Maj. Harrington in thomeanwhille keeping close watch on hermovements, when she departed up theriver. • eJj j ,

Maj. Harrington, who had charteredthe steamer Champion No. 8 for thepurpose, immediately started in pursuit,with Michael Fitzpatrick and one or twoothers of this city, whose names we areunable to ascertain, as a posse to aid, ifnecessary, the enforcement of the pro-cess. It would appear that the towboatwas overtaken at Maysville.

The Champion went up alongside theKate Dickson, while the latter was tyingup at a wharf. Maj. Harrington, on theChampion, was brought face to facewith Taylor's son, on the Dickson.Young Taylor asked, "Who are you;what do you want, anyway ?" Harring-ton answered, " I am a United StatesMarshal, from Covington. My name isHarrington. I have come up to takethis boat, and arrest Capt. Taylor.Where is the^Captain ?"

Young Taylor made some reply, bu 'at that instant Harrington caught sighof Capt. Taylor, who was at his state-room window looking down at him, andin the act of aiming at him a shot-gun—doiible-barrel, some reports say. With-out a word Taylor fired at Harrington aload of buck-shot, which penetrated hisleft side, some of them entering hisheart. Harrington fell back into thearms of one of his men, and died almostinstantly. Taylor immediately appearedat the guards with a revolver. Fourshots were fired at him instantly, one ofwhich passed through his heart, it issupposed, for his death was as instanta-neous as Harrington's.—CincinnatiCommercial.

A. Louisiana Swamp Tragedf.Reuza Jackson, a negro, at a lumber

camp in the Des Glaize swamp, killedhis employers, Frsink McCardle andMurray Graham, and dangerouslywounded Dumonville Develhn, afterthey had retired to their beds in thesmall cabin. It was a deliberatelyplanned butchery. Approaching MurrayGraham's bed, he drew aside the mos-quito bar, exposing the head of thesleeper, and raising aloft his heavy ax,buried its blade in the skull of his vic-tim. Then he turned to McArdle's bed,and, first with the butt and then withthe sharp edge, struck so hard and sooften that Dumonville heard the blows,and starting from his second sleep, ex-claimed, " Boys, boys, the camp is fall-ing." The negro heard this, and, dash-ing at Dumonville, made a blow at himthrough the misquito bar. The blowhappened to be with the flat of the axand struck Dumonville ftill in the breast.Dumonville being unarmed, crept underthe bed, and there received anotherblow, and a third that knocked him intothe water.

Attached to the raft on which the cabinor camp was built was a skiff, which Du-monville seized by the stern, but the ne-gro discovered him, and forced him tolet go his hold. The negro supposedhis victim was drowned, and turnedtoward the cabin, but Dumonville hadstrength enough left to cling to somebushes about twenty feet off and watchthe monster's movements. As the negroturned away he hissed between his teeth,"You white , I've got you,»o." The negro then poured coal oilover the cabin on the raft, and, beforesetting it alight, turned to the corpses oflis victims, still warm, and coolly rifled;hem of everything valuable, rollinghem over and over, and then throwing;hem overboard. Then changing hisilothes, he picked up McArdle's carpet-aag and set the raft on fire. Dumonvillosaw him disappear, and at last the firedied out.— New Orleans Bulletin.

k. CORRESPONDENT of theUtica Heraldsays that the simple treatment of indi-gestion in horses consists in feeding onboiled oats and hot bran mashes twicedaily, and giving alterative medicine.Give one of the following pow.ers everyevening mixed in a mash. Sulphate ofiron, two ounces ; carbonate of soda, oneand a half ounces ; nitrate of potash, oneounce. Divide into fourteen powders.Moderate exercise and careful groomingare also essential.

A CORRESPONDENT of the Chicago Tri-bune says : It is not generally knownthat cisterns can be made without eitherbrick or stone wherever the earth is suf-ficiently compact to admit of digging outthe soil and leaving a firm bank on whichthe cement can be spread to the thick-ness of one or two inches. The cementsoon hardens, making a wall as stiff as astone jug. The top may be covered withplank, with timber support, and thencover over all with about two feet ofearth to keep out the frost. A man-holethrough which the cistern may be enter-ed for cleaning is necessary.

JUNE is the best month in the year forpruning, because the wounds made bythe saw or knife hardens soon, and thenew wood and bark immediately com-mence to grow over and cover them. |Thepruning of young trees should be care-fully attended to in order to biing thehead into a desirable shape, and thepresent month is the right time for theoperation. An indiscriminate pruningin June should not be practiced, forlarge trees are generally covered withfruit at that time, and very few fruit-growers like to cut off large limbs orbranches which are in full bearing. Oldtrees that have set no fruit may beseverely pruned at this time, crossingbranches removed from all trees, andsuckers grubbed up. A low growth ofbranches should be encouraged, not onlyfor shading the trunks from the directrays of the sun, but also for keeping thefruit near the ground where it can beconveniently gathered.

THE farmer who keeps the bulk of hisfarm in well-managed grasra and main-tains a select stock of dairy cows is gen-erally in more comfortable circumstancesthan the man who keeps the greater partof his land in tillage. It requires con-siderable skill to keep up a stock ofsuperior milch cows and to select malesthat will impress their good qualities onthe young stock so that a continual im-provement will be taking place. In thocase of milch cows it is said " thatwhich comes out in the pail must go inat the mouth." It is certain that anabundance of milk of the best qualitycannot be obtained without'a plentifulsupply of pasturage or forage of the bestkind and pure water. The most suc-cessful dairymen find sowed corn andsugar beet valuable supplements to pas-ture and hay, at the most critical time.In summer the watering place for stockshould be in the wood lot where theshade of trees keeps the water cool, andis also a protection to the cattle from thedirect rays of the sun.

Orayediggers' Strike.There has been a gravediggers' strike

at Liverpool. It seems that the BurialBoard lately refused a demand nisde byiheir gravediggers for shorter hours.This refusal led to the men strikingwork. Since then violence has beenused toward one or two of the newgravediggers engaged to replace theothers. There is something alarming inthe prospect of a general strike of grave-diggers. Even the warmest advocatesof cremation can hardly view withoutanxioty tho sudden stoppage of the pres-ent mode of sepulture.

Exiles of tr in.A rumor reached this country a few

days ago that all the Fenian prisonersconfined in Western Australia had es-caped in an American whaling ship.According to a prominent Irish-Ameri-can nationalist who was interviewed bythe New York Herald, the rescue ofthese exiles had been in contemplationfor four years, and was probably effectednearly two months ago. Tho details ofthe plot he declined to make public, onthe ground that it might jeopordize thesafety of those who aided in tho escape.

DEATH TO ANTS.—One of our corres-pondents suffers from the incursions oflarge black ants, and asks how they maybe destroyed. The surest method is toplace old bones or a sponge saturatedwith molasses and water near theirhaunts, and when tho bate is well cov-ered with ants, plunge it and them intoscalding water.

CATJIIIFLOWER.—Cntinthe early morn-ing, when the dew is on it, trim off theouter leaves, cut the stem away close,and an hour before it is cooked, put itinto cold salt water; then put it intosalted boiling water, and boil slowly tillit is tender, which will require from fif-teen to twenty-five minutes, according tosize. Tho moment it is done, drainfrom the water and serve immediatelywith melted butter.

MASHED TURNIPS.—Boil till tender,press out the water, mash, and passthem through a colander ; then putthem in a saucepan over the fire—salt,pepper, a little powdered sugar, butter,and cream; stir till they aro dry, an*serve hot. There is very little nutri-ment in turnips, but in early spring theymake a delightful relish.

A CORRESPONDENT of the GermantownTelegraph says : If the weather is coolwo kill and clean a chicken a day or twobefore using it. Cut up and parboil asusual, without salt or pepper. Thenpour off the liquor, add a good lump ofbutter to the chicken in the saucepanand a little flour, stir until very slightlybrown, return the liquor seasoned withpepper and salt, and cook slowly withcareful stirring until quite done. Weare not heavy handed with salt, asthis can be added at the table to suittastes.

IF one portion of vegetables are boiledin pure water, and another in a littlewater to which salt has been added, adecided difference is perceptible in thetaste and odor, and especially in the tenderness of the two portions. Vegetablesboiled in water without salt are vastlyinferior in flavor. This inferiority maygo so far in ease of onions that they arealmost entirely destitute of odor or taste,though when cooked in salted water theypossess, besides the pleasant salt taste,a peculiar sweetness and strong aroma.They afso contain more soluble matterthan when cooked in pure water. Thisexplains the advantages of an addition ofsalt to the boiling water. And it is im-possible to correct, by addition of saltto tho vegetables, the want of flavor injsuch as have been boiled without it,

THE Saginaw Courier s&ys that Hon.Wm. L- Webber is the author of theplatform adopted at the recent Demo-cratic State Convention: and a very-good platform builder is he.

DEMOCRATIC conventions were heldin Maine and Delaware on Tuesday.In Maine, John Talbot was nominatedfor Governor, delegates appointed toSt. Louis, and a resolutian adopted fa-voring the nomination of Samuel JTilden. The Delaware Convention de-clared for hard money, aad Thomas F,Bayard for President.

EX-SPEAKER BLAINE was the victimof a sun-stioke last Sunday forenoonwhile walking to church with his wifewas taken home in an omnibus, and l.-nunconscious for sovaral hours. We tireglad to bo able to say that he is nowconvalescent, and that his early and peruianunt recovery is assured by his mudcal attendants.

THE Hi-publican National Convcntion met in Cincinnati at noon on Wednesday. Hon. T. M. Poineroy, of NewYork, was made temporary chairmanand Hon E. McPherson, of Pennsylvania, permanent President. At this hour(5 p. m. Thursday) no ballot is reported, and the convention is wrestlingwith the Alabama contested delegationsThe centest wages hot between thtfiiendg of Blaine, liristow, ConklingHayes and Morton, and we are noYankee enough to guess at the resultThe Miohigan delegation, in a preliminary meeting held Wednesday, votedforBristow.il; Blaine, 6; Hayes, 3and Chandler, 1.

A GRAIN of discretion or commonsense has at last found a lodgement inthe controlling head of tho NorthernOhio Democrat (Gen. Steodman), an ultra inflation journal, which now flies aits mast-head: "For President,—Thnominee of the St. Louis ConventionThat's our platform! Sink or swimsurvive or perisk, we will stand by ii' Let us have peace'" Is there enouglof that granule to operate upon thCincinnati Enquirer, or will the perai*tent, contrary, and speechless WashMcLean go down under the deep waters crying " Bill Allen " with his inoving fingers?

THE C-KLEANS (N. Y.) Democrat is onof the many journals whicii favor thnomination of Tilden for President amThurman for Vice-President. Thawould be a ticket to command confideuce and win success. Conventionhave too often forgotten tLe iuiportancof placing second on the ticket a manevery way qualified for the first positionThurman would make a noble presiding officer of the Senate and in thevent of the death of his chiewould honor the White House by taking up his residence therein. If noThurman some other equally souncsafe, and good man. should be placed onthe ticket with Tilden. No second othird rate man, no mere demagogue otime-server will answer for this campaign.

IN THE House, on Monday, the Comraittee on Expenditures in the WaDepartment made an unanimous report exonerating Spsakor Kerr in thmatter of the charges preferred by onHarney, that he had sold a second lieutenant's commission in the army to AP. Green, in 1866, for the sum of $450The report brands Harney as a perjurerif not a tool in the hands of others, au<avers that not a shadow of suspicionattaches to Mr. Kerr. Messrs. Danfortand Hulburt Republican members o]the committee, made brief speecheconcurring in the report, when i» waunanimously adopted by a standinjvote, and a certifiod copy of the proceedings ordered presented to thSpeaker. And now it is to be hopotthat the men who used Harney will bfound out.

A MEETING of the Democratic StateCommittee was held in Detroit lasweek and an organization effected. WB. Moran was elected Secretary amTreasurer, and L. D. Sale appointed assistant Secretary. An Execoutivo Committee was appointed as follows : DonM. Dickinson, chairman ; W. B. Moranand T. D. Hawlev, Detroit; G. P. Sanford, Lansing; Jerome Eddy, FliutE. B. Pond, Ann Arbor; G. H.

THE INDICATIONS now are that Tilden will be nominated at St. LouisNo othor candidate seems to have ansave local support and backing. Nowlet there be no toning down in platformAn attoinpt to satisfy the soft-mone;men of any section or State will onlylose Tilden votes in States which he cancarry on a sound platform, and whichauy candidate muxt carry to bo electedThe platform must adhere to the traditions of the party, recognize gold andsilver coin as the only money known tothe Consiitution, declare for an earlyresumption of speoie payments, ancagainst any backward steps. Demandfor an unqualified repeal of the Re-sumption act, without the offer of some-thing better will be fatal. There mustalso be no resolutions which can betortured into nullifying any of the oldissues settled by the war, or as favoringtue payment of the rebel debt. AndtUeu there must be a first-class candi-date far Vice-President,—no hot-headblathorskite like a Blair, no soft-moneytail to a hard money kite. Give us aFulch, a Thurman,—a man who wouldhonor the chair of the Prosidulit itProvidentially called to " come uphigher." Will the Michigan delegatesponder on these few word» ?

THE Evening News has beeu engagedn the very laudable enterprise of ma-ting up Congressional slates for both>olitical parties. If its informationoncerning the other districts and the

aspirants is as reliable as the half col-umn devoted to this district the writerevidently never went to guessing sohool,and besides is deficient in a knowledgeof men. For instance, in making up.he loll of Republican candidates heomits the names of Gen. Spaulding, ofMonroe, who it is claimed oan beatWillits at home, and Hon. J. K. Boies, ofLensv.ee. But this omission is nothingto the ignorance manifested in thedeclaration that Hon. S. M. Cutoheon

never held or sought for office before.'Hasn't the gentlemen been a member oithe House and its Speaker ? wasn't he amember of the Constitutional Commis-sion ? hasn't he held the office of In-spector of National Banks 'i and hasn'the hankered after a seat in the UnitecStates Senate, a nomination for Govern-or, and several times had occasion tocull the Congressional grapes "sour";The News names as the Democratic aspirants, Hon. H. J. Redfield, of Mouroe ; Hon. N. B. Eldredge, of Lenawee«nd Hon. J. D. Corey, of Washtanawneither gentleman being understood, inthis vicinity, to be candidates." Th(candidates he names in the Third distriot are legion, but his personal references show him better on names thanfacts. Illustration : Gen. Parkhurst, oBranch, didn't run against Waldron in1872 (old Pappy Mahan did that), butagainst Willard ; and then the declaration that he trains with the Liberaland doesn't know how to jump untiafter the Cincinnati Convention, ilaughable, in view of the fact that thGeneral was a member of the Demooratic State Committee during the pastwo years, was a delegate to the latiDemocratic State Convention at Lansing, and a candidate for delegate alarge to St. Louis.

—The Register of Wednesday, with singu-lar and wonderful enterprise, gave promineutplace to what purported to be a speech deliv-ered at the Cincinnati Convention by neighborBaal, of the Courier. Two reasons incline ustoiuspect that somebody has put up a job onthe Register folk. 1. The convention had notorganized at the hour of the Regis-in-'j issue (could the spirits have looked in"Beat's hand" and then played informer),wd 2. When Bro. Beal was recently seren-ided by the students he told them, " I'm notgoiog to make a speech, I can.t make a speech,tat 1 will spell for you." No, Beal is not aspeech-maker, and the Register has evidentlykeen sold.

—The M. E. Church Choir gave some veryfine music to a very select audience on Tues-day evening: at least the audience was smallenough to be select. The congregation whichis privileged to hear the really excellent choirevery Sunday ought to be relegated to con-congregational and nasal singing for its fail-ure to respond to the call of the choir on thisoccasion.

A NEW OECHABD PEST.—A few days agoMr. A. W. Britten, of this city, showed usbottled specimens of a small black Worm,taken from the orchurd of Jacob Bullinger,in Lima. These worms made their appear-ance on a tree or two last year, and this yearhad already stripped the foliage from thirtylarge apple trees, with no appearance of be-ing satiated. Mr. Butteu had shown the" varmints " to Prof. Harrington and others,by whose advice he proposed to forward themto Prof. Cook, of the Agricultural College, forname, description of habits, etc. Prof.Cook pronounces it the " Canker Worm." Itis fully described in his work ou the "Injuri-ous insects of Michigan," and the methods andmeans of guarding against its ravages given.Papers smeared with tar or printer's ink tack-ed around the tree to prevent the ascent ofthe mother moth, or neater and better a bandof inch rope drawn close around and tackedto the tree, aui around the rope a strip of tinfour or five inches wide. If closely tackedthe moth oanuot get above the trap but willlay its eggs along the rope under the tin audthe larva! can be destroyed by a liberal appli-cation of kerosene oil. Tlio worms once get-ting upon the tree straw may be placed be-neath it, the tree jarred, the falling worms de-tached from their long silken thread by a pole,and then the straw burned. Prof. Cook thinksthat taken in time the spread to neighboringorchards may be prevented. Constant watch-fulness is necessary, and work in the mannergiven, to save the orchards.

TEE AJIEEICAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION.—

Ibis association met last week in Philadelphia,ud "30 members registered. Some of itsbusiness has an interest for the people of Mich-ij'n. In the first place the delegates from theMichigan State Medical Society were arraign-*1 before the association by Prof. Frothing-tam, on the charge of improper affiliation withhomeopathy and other quackery. These gen-tlemen were thus excluded from nearly the•bole of the meeting this year and will re-gain under charges until the next annualanting of the association. The medical pro-wion will thus have an opportunity to judge»• the insincerity and meanness of the motivesbr which the Michigan State Medical Society**> actuated in its recent malevolent attack* the University. Two resolutions were•dopted by the association which taken to-Sether will have the effect of counteracting"» calumnious misrepresentations which have"MI so freely indulged in respecting the med-Wl faculty here. The first we believe emana-ted from Dr. Foster Pratt, and taken by itself11»indefinite and loose that its effect mustJ»»eheen merely to aggravate aud confuse4« matter. It is as follows:, Resolved, That members of the medical pro-*s»iou who m »ny way aid or abet the gradu-«ion of medical students in irregular or exclu-de systems of medicine are deemed therebyJJ "olate the code of ethics of the American**lic«l Association.

frof. Frothiugham then offered the follow-ing;Uttoked, That the judicial council be asked

t0 Uehue precisely the nature and degree of•won which constitutes " aiding and abetting "N report to the next meeting of the associa-

"»fil this definition is reported all discussionou the point should in common decency cease.

THE SUPERVISORS.—A special session of thaBoard of Supervisors was held, pursuant tostatute, at the Court House in this city, onMonday last, for the purpose of equalizing thetax rolls of the several townships and cities. Aquorum was present at the first calling of theroll by the Clerk, aud Supervisor Shurtleff, ofAnn Arbor Township, was made temporarychairman. In the afternoon the members ofthe Board were all present, and a permanentorganization was effected by eleeting NathanPierce, of Lima, Chairman. A resolution wasadopted fixing $9,000,000 as fhe basis of equal-ization, aud another adopting the equalizationof the lastaunuai session. Supervisor Wheeler,of Salem, was appointed to represent the in-terests of the county at the coming meeting ofthe State Board of Equalization, after whichthe Board adjourned sine die.

—The short work made by the Board we areinclined to think resulted from the impressionthat the equalization was only temporary, andthat more thorongh work would be made atthe October session. We suggest to the Su-pervisors that tha law only provides for onceequalizing the assessment rolls in each year,and they will find no warrant for overhaulingthe work of Monday. The time and cost ofthe annual two weeks' wrestling match will besaved to the county.

One William Edward Choate, of Chelsea,writes to the Evening Newt, of Detroit, tocorrect " a false idea with reference to theaction of the State Medical Society" which" the public press seems to be laboriug under."The correction takes the form of an assertion :"There was no effort made by the State Socie-ty to throw out the graduates of the regularmedical department." And this in fac» of thafact that graduates of the class of 76, recom-mended for membership, were objected to andmade to wait the report of the "Committee ofNine," and in the haste of the Society to runaway from some imaginary ghsst, were noteven admitted after that report. And also inface of the attempted amendment of the con-stitution for the purpose of shutting out grad-uates of future classes. Equally unfortunateis William Edward Choate in citing the act of1875 establishing a homeopathic medical col-lege. " Bills" or " acts " or " laws" some-times have two readings, and Dr. Klein, ofDetroit, whose orthodoxy will not b« ques-tioned, told the Society that the Regents hadcorrectly interpreted the act,—that the Legis-lature did not mean a duplication of chairs.William Edward Choate's logic aui facts are" crooked " enough even though he may takehis medicine " straight."

See card m appropriate column.

Attorney about the matter, he directed him tofind the yooug man and return the money atonce and bring him before some Justice of thePeace ; this occurred some three hours afterthe money was received.

6th. He has recently disregarded a resolu-tion of the Common Council, in not allowinghis deputy making an arrest to take the pris-oner to the Detroit House of Correction, butwent himself.

7th. He has arrested a person, uut him injail, and afterward directed the sheriff to re-lease him, without making any complaint orbringing him before any Justice of the Peace.

8th. He has required his deputies to do morethan their share of police work, requiringthem to leave their beats and go upon servicewhich he ought to have performed.

9th. He has brought complaints without firstconferring with the City Attorney as to th*evidence in support thereof, when he ought tohwe done so as directed by resolution of theCommon Council.

10th. He has been paid for services for theentire day but during much of the time hasbeen absent from his headquarters and thebusiness part of the city during the latter panof the afternoon and evening.

Ilth. When he has been informed that abreach ot the peace was being committed hehas not repaired immediately to the scene o:such disturbance, giving as a reason that hemust first eat his supper.

12th. He has not usually patrolled or beenon the streets during Sunday forenoon, andthe city has been without a patrolman formost ot that time.

13th. He has gone home in the afternoonusually and not returned (with some excep-tions) until night or nine o'clock the next mor-ning ; and on one occasion left in the after-noon and did not return until the next mor-ning, although informed that there probablywould be a disturbance in the evening whichdid actually occur.

14th. He has claimed publicly that if he waspassing a saloon aud was informed that afight was going on therein it was not his dutyto enter the building unless ho could hear thedisturbance from the street.

loth. He has taken a note running to himselfor bearej, for a saloon tax, from a saloon keep-er, instead of leaving the case to be conductedby the City Attorney and Justice of the Peace.The note being illegal and worthless and ig-nored by the City Attorney, the money wasafterwards paid. The saloon keeper had paidno tax the previous year.

16th. He has stated publicly that he was op-posed to the Ann Arbor tax law and to closingsaloons that did not pay license, and he hasuniformly acted upon that principle, to the in-jury of saloon keepers who have paid theirtax promptly.

17th. He has neglected to enforce the ordi-nance relative to saloons being open on Sun-day, when informed of the fact and that evi-dence could be obtained to this effect if properefforts were made.

For these reasons, and many others thatmight be given, your committee are thereforeof the opinion that he has so conducted him-self that he is not deserving of being lougsrretained as the Marshal of this city, and be-lieve that if he is to pursue the same course intha future as in the past he should be dis-charged at once. But hoping that he maymend his course your committee recommendthat he be retained for a short time on trial,and that if there is no radical or permanentchange for the better in the future that he badismissed.

POETRY FOB HOME AND SCHOOL, New York :G. P. Putnam's Sons.Tha selections in this little volume were

made and arranged by Anna C. Brackett, andIda M. Eliot. Mist Brackett gives .in her pre-face her reason for adding this compilationof poems to the many already in existence;the need of something to answer the demandof teachers in school work. It is often verydifficult to lay hands on just what is wantedfor recitations, and we really think the presentvolume will supply acceptable help in that di-rection. The selections are varied in charac-ter, running through the poets from Chaucerto Longfellow, and the names of the authorsare sufficient guaranty of their excellence.Most of them also aie of old enough date tohave stood the test of time, and those of re-cent appearance are fully up to the standard.The first part, designed for children from " sixto ten years of age," is especially charming.The book need by no means be confined to tkeschool room, but is a pleasant one to have ly-ing round at home, where one can refresh one'sself with an occasional glimpse of old favor-ites at odd moments.

Tho mde guillotine consistedof a large-ax, suspended by a doubie cord. Be-tween the cords stood a candle arranged so thatwhen it burned down to the cords it wouldsevere them and set the ax in motion.

Gas was noticed burning in his room dur-ing day, and when it was opened ho was foundwith his head in a box placed to receive it, anda bunch of cotton or wool by him, supposed tohave been saturated with chloroform, which hetook.

CENTENNIAL NOTES.

[By Onr Own Correspondent.]Many people speak of tho intense heat of

Philadelphia, as is supposed to be the case i:all large cities; hence feel deterred from vieit-ing tho Exhibition during the heated torm. Thefollowing is the average for the last ten years:May, 63; July, 78; October, 5G degrees Fahren-heit. There are a few warm days in all citiesin our country hi July and Aagust. Tho areaof the city is immense, 129 square milos. Thisadded to a magnificent water-power that show-ers and cools tho air of many squares, and isused freely in lakes, pools and fonntains onthe Exhibition grounds and in the buildingsThis power fills the reservoirs, which hold145,672,078 gallon';, machinery of turbinoB, andtwo breast-wheels. Then we have the largestpark in tho world. Hyde Park, 88!) acres; Ke-gent, 450 acres; Windsor Great Park, 1,800acres, London; Bois de Boulogne, Paris, 2,158;Prater, Vienna, 2,500 aeres; Richmond Hill,England, 2,468 acres; Phosnix Park, Dublin,1,752 acrea; Shaw's Garden, St. Louis, 27Gacres; Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, 2,740acres; to which add the beauties of the Ex-hibition, and it will pay a man from tho mostremote spot on earth to pick up his "kit",andcome.

THE CATALOGUE DEPAKTMENT.The catalogue is now undergoing a thorough

supervision, and when completed, will be asplendid work of reference. This importantbranch of the service is in charge of tho com-petent assistant secretary of the commission,Prof. Dorsoy Gardner, whoso reputation as ascholar has eminently fitted him for the posi-tion he holds. His two valued aids, Messrs.Lombard and Long, with an eflicient corps ofassistants, will soon accomplish tho difficultand arduous task of placing each article onexhibition in its appropriate place, arranged inseven departments, which are divided into 374classes, occupying five buildings, main, art,machinery, agricultural and horticultural.The difficulty those gentlemen have to stir-mount may be conceived when one considerstho technicalities in the different languages.and the various changes each fabric has ir.foreign make up. I am indebted to theBe gen-tlemen for a thorough examination of then-work, and pronounce them the right men intke right place!

MISCELLANY.The most superior blanket in the Exhibition,

THE contestants of the Stewart willreally do seem to have some ground tostand on in their objections to the hastvprobate of that document. Tho princi-pal objection is that no citation or noticeto appear or attend the probate of thobill was issued or directed to or servedupon the heirs at law as required, norwas any such citation issued or directedto or served upon the Attorney-generalof the State of New York, or any onerepresenting the State of New York, asshould have been done if their was afailure of heirsat-law.

THEUE can be no doubt that the Cen-tennial Exhibition is fast getting intoreal order, and as little doubt that itcontains within itself the elements of agreater succoss than has yet beenachievod by any of these colossal tourna-ments of art and industry. By the 4thof July the merits and the magnificenceof tho Exhibition will begin to be recog-nized for what they are, and we may ex-pect about that time to see its influencereally felt as it has not yet been felt onthe railway travel of the country.

THE proprietor of one of the NewJersey watering places advertises him-self as a novel and entertaining kind ofbigot by proolaming that " Jews are notadmitted" to his house. Ho will hardlybe troubled with any applications fromthe class referred to, and it is verydoubtful whether his patronage fromother reputable classes will be increasedby his proscription. He will be com-pelled to discriminate, however, verycarefully should the Jews desire to an-noy him. If he confines his proscrip-tion to religious grounds he is safe ; butif he puts it on the ground of race hebecomes liable to prosecution under theCivil Eights bill.

EEPORTS from Cuba all agree that theinsurrection in that island is gainingstrength continually, in spito of the mostdetermined efforts of the Spanish au-thorities to crush it. The impossibilityof reconquering the island begins todawn on the Spanish mind, and theCaptain-general has become somewhatalarmed at the situation. The SpanishGovernment has empowered and au-thorized him to draw upon theSpanish treasury for $50,000 ingold daily to meet tho exigencies ofthe army. It certainly looks as thoughthe inhuman contest for the possessionof an island which Spain cannot govern,and only holds to curse, is very nearlyat an end. Events have shown howmuch wiser and better it would havebeen had the Spanish Government yield-ed to tho advice and solicitations of theUnited States years ago, and therebysaved thousands of lives and millions oftreasure.

A I/TJLI. appears to have taken place inTurkish affairs, owing to the Port's offerof amnesty to the insurgents, the grant-ing of a six weeks' armistice, and theapparent accord with the general basisagreed to by the powers. Meanwhilothe clouds continue to settle heavily inthe continental horizon, and to threatena rupture at no distant date. The hostile tone and attitude assumed by theEnglish Government, so much in con-tradiction of the Premier's declared de-sire for peace, forebode no good to theBritish Empire. At the ]5erlin con-ference the three powers — Russia,Prussia, and Austria — appeared to re-gard England as out of tho field alto-gether; but they have found their ad-vance stopped by her presence, andshould her policy be pursued to the ex-tent of war she will have to stand alonoagainst the united strength of Europe'sgreatest powers. France could not as-sist her, nor could Turkey ; the smallerpowers might. t^t

A Wordy War Between Blaine andKnotU

There was an exciting seeno in theroom of the House Judiciary Committee,at Washington, on the 7th inst. Mr.Blaine went before the committee anddemauded a consideration of the circum-stances connected with the Caldwell tele-gram from London. Knott stated a sup-position ease about a telegram from Cald-well which might have said that Blainewas guilty. Blaine calmly interruptedKnott, and said : " You will permit meto believe that it would have pone outvery soon." Kuott, approachingBIninein a threatening manner, said, " Whatdo you mean sir ? What do you say ?Do you insinuate that I would do youinjustice in that manner?" Blaino re-marked, " I men to say that I don'tthink you would keep back a dispatchthat would hurt me." The friends ofMr. Blaino unconsciously gatheredaround him. and had ChairmanKnott made another step towardBlaine there wouhl have been a per-sonal encounter. Gen. Hunton, who isa man of remarkable composure, suc-ceeded in enforcing order,

Knott had been terribly excited by theassaults of Blaino upon him in tho House.That exasperation was increased by thefact that Blaiue openly to his face, in thecommitteo room, raised an issue of veraci-ty, and had charged Knott with sup-pressing the Caldwell dispatch. Knottbecame greatly excited. His white mus-tache grew a shade paler; his fierycheeks took on a deeper glaw. Heclutched his oaken stick with a firmergrasp, and advanced threateningly tow-ard Blaine, who sat in a chairthree feet from him watching eve-ry movement with unflinchingeye. Knott raised his diminutiveform, and yon could hoar in the silenceof that committee room the exasperatedinquiry which, boing interpreted, meant

11 Who does thiB pair of boots displace,M nut meet UonibasteB face to face."

When the sub-committee adjourned,Knott, approaching Frye, a member ofthe committee, and who has been in at-tendance as advisory friend of Blaine,said to him: "Mr. Fryo, your friendBlaino is tho god-damnedest scoundrelin America." This remark, oritsoquiv-filont, having already found its way intoprint, it should be added that Frye re-plied : " You forget yourself, Mr.Knott." "Yes," said Knott, " I do,"and he thereupon withdrew the remark,and apologized for having made it.

KSOTT OW BLAISE.

li.'ierli of the Chairman of the Bousejudiciary Committee in Answer to ihoInsulting .Imputations of the Maliit'Bully.Mr. Knott, Chairman of the Judiciary

lomniittee, said he had listened to im-putations upon himself -within the laattwo hours which, «oming from a differ-ent source, he might petliapif answervery differently from the manner in whichhe should now attempt to answer them.Those who were intimately acquaintedwith him knew that he was tho last manin the world to seek a personal contro-versy, and he assured the House that ofall men in tho world the gentleman fromMaine (Blaine) was the last man withwhom he would Seek such a controver-sy. Tnat gontleinatl was entirely tooimmense a party in nis proportions." Why, man, he doth bestride the narrow wofld

like a Colossus,"and we petty men walk under his hugelegR and peep about to find ourselves indishonorable graves. Personal contro-versy geetned to be that gentleman'sforte. He reminded him of Homer'adescription of Diomodo :

" Diro was the clang, and dreadful from afar,The armed Tydides rushing to v/it."

As a friend of his would say, the gen-tleman was entirely too bumtious andtoo usurptious for him. [Laughter onthe Democratic side.") Two-third* ofthe time the gentleman was in tha Househe did not seem ttl realise1 whether hewas Speaker or only simply a member,and to a stranger it would bo an insolv-able enigma to know which he was.The gentleman had quite unnecessarilylugged him (Knott) into this personalmatter of his own. In the first place hohad insinuated that from some unworthymotive he (Knott), as Chairman of theJudiciary Committee, had appointed ona sub-committee which had oharge ofthese investigations the gentleman fromVirginia (Hunton) and the gentlemanfrom North Carolina (Ashe). In answerto that he had to say, first, that eitherof those gentleman was his (Blaine's)peer in any sense of the word, and thatin point of honor it was no disparage-ment to tho gentleman from Maine tosay they were his superiors. [Hissesand othor marks of disapprobation fromtho other side of the House.]

Mr. Knott—That is all right. Therearo three kinds of animals in the worldthat hiss — vipers, geese, and fools.[Laughter, J

In the second placo this sub-committeowas selected long before thero was anyinsinuation, public or private, that thegentleman from Maine was in any man-ner implicated in the fraudulent transac-tions on the part of any of these corpora-tions, and it seemed to n.e when thegentleman flung his imputations at methat it was a little strange that he couldascribe such motives to me under thecircumstances. Even granting that thegentleman from Virginia and the gentle-man from North Carolina were his per-sonal enemies, it does seem a little re-markable that you cannot touch one ofthese railroads but tho gentleman fromMaine will squeal, and 1 have no doubtthat it struck Mr. Harrison as a little re-markable that when that $75,000-boad transaction was mentioned in themeeting of the directors the Treasurer ofthe Union Pacific Bailroad Companyshould say, " Donrt say anything aboutthat; it will involve Blaine." But hiscommittee was raised long before I hadany intimation that Blaine was involvedin it in any manner I went to his per-sonal friend and colleague, Frye, andasked him to tako a position on die sub-committee, which he declined. Thegentleman from Maine seems to insinu-ate that it is the settled purpose ofthe Judiciary Committe to dosomething or other which might,peradventuro, prevent him from re-ceiving the nomination of his party attho coming convention at Cincinnati. 1beg the gentleman to believe that so faras I am concerned we are perfectly willing he should receive that nomination.If in the pending campaign wo cannotdefeat the gentleman rom Maine thenour cause is entirely hopeless. [Laugh-ter on the Democratic side.] If he shallreceive the nomination and be electedby the American people in the face ofafl the facts, then all I can say is, "Maythe Lord have mercy on the Americanpeople." [Shouts of laughter.] TheJudiciary Committee has done this gen-tleman no wrong. It has not even de-cided what shall be done with the letters.The committee has not taken any actionon the subject at all, and the gentlemanought to be informed that to-morrowmorning the question was to be broughtup. Yet in defiance of all parliamentarylaw an ex-Speaker of the House comeshere on the pretext of a personal ex-planation, and takes the matter awayfrom the jurisdiction of tho committee ;that is the condition in which this thingstands. I t is a matter not decided yetat all, and there was no intimation that asolitary word of one of those letterswould be given to the public, but thegentleman was very positively assuredthat he would not bo martyred by theJudiciary Committee.

As to the cable dispatch from JosiahCaldwell, it is true that last Thursdaymorning I did receive a dispatch. Thegentleman from Maine (Biaine) seems toknow precisely the hour at which I re-ceived it and its contents. He seemsthoroughly posted on tho subject, butpermit to say with regard to the insinu-ation that that telegram has been sup-pressed, that any man, high or low,whoever he may be, who will elsewheremake such an insinuation, must take theconsequences. if. w»v

I hurl the falsehood back into theteeth of any man who makes a sugges-tion as to the suppression of that dis-patch. [Applause on the Democraticside.] I have it. I did not sjjjjipress itat all. In less than thirty minutes afterI received it I read it to sev-eral gontlomen. But thore was noparticular address in London fromwhich it purported to come, and I didbelieve, and am not altogether certainyet that I do not believe, it was a fixed-np job. [Murmurs of dissent from theBepubliean side.]

In answer to requests from tho Re-publican side to read the dispatch fromCnldwell, Mr. Kuott said: I have notthe dispatch here. It is at my house.The contents of it are subntentially asstated by the gentleman from Maine(Blaine). I do not know that I can re-peat it in the exret torms. The purportof it is that Caldwell had seen ThomasA. Scott's testimony in tho New Yorkpapers and that it was substantially cor-rect; that he had not let Mr. Blaine haveany bonds, and that he would send anaffidavit to that effect, but that he wasengaged in a railroad enterprise overthero and could not come to give histestimony without serious pecuniaryloss. This is substantially what is in it,and if the gentleman had only waitedthat dispatch would have been presentedto the committee for whatever uso thecommittee might see proper to make ofit. I had no desire to injure the gen-tleman from Maine personally, and espe-cially not politically, but I desire thatthe truth may be told. As for myself, Ihad no knowledge of any transaction bytho gentleman from Maine inconsistentwith the highest personal integrity. Ido not desire that he should be injuredin the least, but I do desire that if anyperson is guilty of wrong we shall turntho gas on and let the people seo him.| Laughter aud applause.)

SPEAKEK KERR'S CASE.

Another Republican Appointment — Mr.Kcrr'n Influence Duo Wholly to Frlenil-IttitJ.

[AlbSiJj firfi *»«i» VOT* Ttllntne.JMr. Charles J. Buchanan^ the junior

law partner of ex-Speaker Henry Smith,of this city, was appointed a cadet atWest Point, by President Johnson, in18(>7, from the country at large, throughSpeaker Kerr's influence, and to-daymado a statement to your correspondentwhich throws eotne light on Mr. Kerr'sconduct in appointing a Bepubliean fromNew York instead of a Democrat fromIndiana. Mr. Buchanan, who thon livedin Chenango county, New York, had beena sergeant-major in Berdan's regimentof sharpshooters, and had made an ap-plication for a oadetship at West Point,which was formally approved by Gen.Meftdo and Gen. Grant, and accompa-nied by a recommendation from Gen.Hancock.

In 18«6, finding his application fail-ing of attention, h« «ame to Washingtondetermined if possible to obt«in Demo-cratic help and forward his request. Ktiboarded at the Avenue house, where Mr.Kerr then resided, and he took occasionas they were bath earning out of thehouse dno day to introduce himself toMr. Kerr, to show him his' Credentials,and to ask his help. Mr. Kerr lookedover the credentials, made a favorableremark upon them, and agreed to seehim upon the subject that evening. Asthe result of the interview Mr. Kerrevinced an interest in Mr. Buchananand went with him personally to Presi-dent Johnson, wno said he would dowhat he could. Mr. Kerr's interest inMr. Buchanan increased and he wentWith him several times to see the Presi-dent, and even enlisted tho friendship ofSenator Hendricks and RepresentativesHolman and Niblack.

The appointment was delayed, how-ovor, and not until 1867 did Mr. Bn-chanan receive it, notification of it be-ing sent to him in Minnesota, where howas then living, by Mr. Kerr. He sawMr. Kerr afterward in New Albany, Ind.,and warmly thanked him for the ap-pointment, and Mr. Kerr seemed muchgratified at having done him tho favor.No question Was ever asked him as tohis politics, except that once Mrs. Kerrsaid she thought he " was something ofa Badical," whereupon he respondedthat he did not favor the policy of An-drew Johnson. Mrs. Kerr thereuponresponded that Mr. Kerr neverinquired aa to the politics of anyyoung man in whom he becameinterested, and the conversation wasdropped. In conclusion Mr. Buchananstates that no reward or offer of rewardfor his appointment was ever made toMr. Kerr, and he attributes his actionsolely to generosity. He does not be-liove that a thought of reward evercrossed his mind in his case or in thatconcerning which ho is now assailed.Mr. Buchanan had thought of writingto Mr. Kerr to offer his testimony if heshould need it, but had not done so, andnow holds himself in readiness to pro-ceed to Washington at any time to testi-fy, if wanted, to the facts as here stated.Mr. Buchanan is now a Bepubliean, andresides in this city.

•Republicans Fighting Retrenchment.The Republican United States Senate

has since the very commencement of thepresent session opposed the reductions inthe appropriations proposed by theDemocratic House, and labored to keepthe expenditures of the departments atthe same high figures of more prosper-ous times. Tneir opposition to this re-duction has been persistent. The Sen-ate has been supported by the cry of theBepubliean press that the Democracywas trying to cripple the Government.At la«t, finding that the DemocraticHouse could not be driven from its posi-tion in favor of reducing the expensesof the Government, the Senate has ex-hibited signs of yielding andindicates its desire to assent toa compromise. By the firmnessof the House of Representatives,there is thus a prospect ol a considera-ble reduction of the appropriations fromthe war figures which have been main-tained throughout by the Republicans.This reduction will not be anywherenear what it should bo, what the condi-tion of the country demands, nor whatit would bo if there was a DemocraticSenate to co-operate with the House ofRepresentatives. The failure of thoRepublican Senate to come up to thenecessities of the times demonstrates theimportance of securing a DemocraticSenato which in the future may assist aDemocratic House* and a DemocraticPresident in enforcing economy and re-duction in expenditures hi all branchesof the public service. — New YorkWorld.

1 —Oregon Democratic

An election occurred in Oregon onMonday, the 5th inst., for member ofCongress and members of the State Leg-islature. The telegraph informs us thatthe_Stato has goiie Demosratic, and thatthe Democrats will have a majority inthe Legislature. The Legislature meetsin September, and one of its duties willbe the election of a United States Sena-tor to succeed James J. Kelley, Demo-crat, whose term expires on the 4th ofMarch, 1877. The election of a Demo-cratic Legislature in the State insuresthe choice of a Democratic United StatesSenator, and indicates that Oregon maybe confidently depended upon to choosethreo Democratic electors in November.Two years ago a Democratic Governorwas chosen in the State on a pluralityvote, an Independent candidate who wasin the field having received about one-fourth of the total vote cast. At thesame time the Democratic candidate forCongress was elected, also by a plurality.In 1872 the Republicans carried theState on a majority vote, both at theCongressional and Presidential elec-tions. Last year there, was a specialelection for Congress, at which the Demo-crats were successful, and they have thisyear followed up that success by achiev-ing another victory. The result in Ore-gon goes to show that the people havenot much confidence in the professedability of the Republican party to reformitself.

When Babcock, after loud pretencesof a desire to meet all the bottom factsof his case, came to actual trial before acourt and jury, he used every effort tokeep out the damaging evidence. WhenBlaine, after deceitful representationsfrom his seat in Congress of his railwaytransactions and adroit protestations ofhis parity, was confronted with theprivate correspondence which witnessedhis corrupt practices, he tried to buy offthe holder of those letters, and meta-phorically went down on his knees tohim.

How It t 'eels tw Have lour Top-knot TornOfl by the Aid of uri Ind lun'» Knife.

[From the Kutiftas City Times.]There arrived here on Friday even-

ing's Kansas Pacific train a party ofthree persons, direct from DeadwoodCity, the new mining town in the BlackHills, Learning that onb of the partyhad beeil idiot and scalped by Indians,a reporter sought them but, and fromMr. A. P. Woodward, formerly of Bos-ton, but latterly of Custer, obtained thefollowing interesting facts relating to arecent massacre about seventy milesnorth of Fort Laramie. Mr. Woodwardwas accompanied by T. S. Gates, of St.Louis, and Herman Ganzio, of Milwau-kee, the latter wounded and sufferingfrom a wound in tho scalp. Tho scalpis, in fact, half gone.

It has often been said that a man canlive after being scalped ; but until lastFriday evening no ocular proof had beenproduced in this city substantiating thatfact. HermuU Ginzio's head, from thecenter of the foreLcad back to thecrown of the head, is at present onemass of sores. The hair has teen cutawa.V by tUe surgeons in charge at FortLaramie, but the pear-shaped patchmade by the scalping knife is thus madoall the more distinct The poor felloehas been in hospital since the 13th ofApril, but his companions havo stoodmanfully by him, and reiterated theirintention to see him through to hishome. In conversation with the re-porter, with whom he had been previ-ously acquainted, Ganzio said, describ-ing his mishap :

" You see we were coming down intothe valley of Hut creek, on our way toFort Laramie, when we thought we sawIndians coming down the creek to theright. Instead of camping there, wethought it safer to water our stock andgo on into the hills and make a drycamp in the bushes, if we could notmake Running Water creek, where alarge camp of freighters was reported.

" I had been sent on ahead up the hill,just where tho big stone hut stands bythe road, and with a boy named Kountze,from Omaha, sat down to wait forthe wagons, which were slowly comingup ont of the valley. When the wagonsreached us I started on alone throughthe rockH and pine bushes to seek a goodcamp. A few hundred yards further onI koked down a ravine to the right andsaw five mounted Indians ride across thevalley. I started to go back to thetrain, when at least a dozen Indians ranat me out of the brush, and you bet Iran and hollered for help. In a minutemore two or three of them shot at me.I felt a sharp, stinging pain in my leftleg, and another in my left shoulder, andI fell. Then they were upon me in aminute, and one of them put his kneeon my back, while another hit me a clipwith a club or a butt of a gun, I don'tknow which. I had no time to think.All I knew was I was being scalped ; myhair was held tight. I felt a hot, a red-hot, stinging sort of pain all arouud thetop of my head—being torn out by theroots ; it was too much ; I couldn't standi t ; I died—at least I thought I did. Butmy scalp was saved just as it was beingtorn off. The boys at the wagons hadseen me running ; saw the Indians andcame on—thirteen of them—and got upjust in time to prevent the red devils fin-ishing their work. The Indians, as wellas my friends, thought I was dead.But I came to again, and my scalp waslaid back. It waa oDly half torn off, asyou will see, and is growing again nicely."

The poor fellow was taken to FortLaramie, and received every attention,and as soon as he was able started for hisparents' home in Milwaukee. He is thefirst white' man who has felt the"Injun's " hand ha his hair this year whohas lived to come home and tell how itfeels. The Black HUlers spent yester-day in the city, and last evening con-tinued their journey eastward.

Decline of Pennsylvania's Iron Trade."Yes, sir, Pennsylvania has lost its

iron trade, and we are sorry to say thatwe think the best days for the trade inthis State are over," said one of theleading iron men of the Keystone State." And I will tell you why wo think so,"he continued. ' ' Look at that mill acrossyonder. It is the largest of its kind inAmerica. The Phoanix Irpn Companycommenced building it five years ago.It has a greater rolling capacity than anyother establishment hi the country.Thoy finished it just as the great panicof 1875 struck them. Jt has never beenin full operation, and it is a questionwhether it ever will.

" Note the furnaces that are idle. Goup the Leliigh valley, as 1 have donelately, and then come down the Susque-hanna districts, and thence through theSchuylkill valley, and seo how manystacks are in blast. Fully two thirds arecold and bleak as black ghosts, and hun-dreds of thousands of dollars aro invest-ed and not a cent of income is derived.Around Pittsburgh there are a few millsgoing, but the margins are so very nar-row that the mill owner is constancycrowding down the prices of the work-ingmen, and the result is continual strifeand discontent.

"The truth is, and we might as wellacknowledge it now as at any othertime, Pennsylvania is played out as aniron commercial center. I t may neveragain have the great trade it once pos-sessed. It has shifted, and slowly butgradually the iron business is being di-vided, and it will not bo long before eachState will more or less contribute to itsown demand.—Phwnixville (Pa.)
