. ? _ THE TVXCO Of' TBE COMMUNE, j A War Sketch. Trnnnlnted from the French ot ATphonne Dnudot. He was a little drammer belonging to the native sharpshooters. His name j was Kadour. Ho came from the tribe of Djendel, and was one of that handful of Turcos who had thrown themselves into Paris in the train of the army of i Vinoy. He had gone through the entire campaign from "Wissembonrg to Champiguy, darting over the fields of battle like a storm bird, with his iron drumsticks and his derbonku, (Arab drum), so ouicklv. so restlesslv that the balls coulii not hit him. But when winter canio on, this little piece of African bronze, reddened in the lire of canister shot, was unable to bear the nights of guard duty and mrtionlessness in tho snow; so, one Janunry morning, they found him on the ba ak of the Marne, twisted by the cold, and with his fe^t frozen. He remained a long while in the hospital. It was there I Baw him for the lirst time. Sad and patient like a sick hound, , the Torco looked around him with great, gentle eyes. When addressed, 1 he smiled and showed his teeth. This was all he conld do, for our language was unknown to him and he with difficulty spoke the Sabir, that Algeiiau dialect composed of Provencal Italian and Arabic, made up of variegated words gathered like shells all along the Latin seas. To amuse himself Kadour had only 'his derbonka. From time to time, j when he grew too impatient, it was brought to his bed and he was per- j mitted to play on it, but not too loudly, because of the other sick men. Then his poor dark face, so dull, so faded looking amid tho yellow daylight and the somber winter landscape visible without, grew animated, grimaced and fnllowpil nil the uliases of the music. Now ho sounded the charge and the flash of his white teeth gave place to - Wild laughter; now his eves moistened at some Itfussnlmau strain; his nostrils dilated, and amid the nauseous odor of tho hospital, the rials and the com- i presses, be again saw the groves of Blidah loaded with oranges and the 1 young Moorish girls coming from the bath enveloped in white and perfumed with vervain. Two months passed tbns. Many things had happened in Paris during those two months but Kadour suspected nothing. He heard the returning army, weary and disarmed, pass beneath his windows; later he heard tho cannon dragged about, rolled from morning until evening; then the tocsin, the cannonade. He understood nothing of all this, except that the war was yet in progress and that he could now join the fray, since his limbs were cured. Ho departed, his drum on his back, in quest of his company. He did not [ search long. borne communists | who were passing took him to the place. " After much questioning, as he could draw nothing from him bat unintelligible phrases, the general in command ' gave him ten francs and an omnibus horse and attached him to his staff. There was a little of everything in those staffs of tho commune, red coats, Polish cloaks, Hungarian jackets, marines' blouses, gold, velvet, spangles ~ and laeo. With his blue vest, em- . broidcred with yellow, his turban and 1 his derbonka, the Turco completed the masquerade. Filled with joy at finding himself in such fine company, intoxicated by the sunlight, the cannonade, j the noise of the streets, the confusion of weapons and uniforms, persuaded, in addition, that it was the war against Prussia which was continuing with j lie Knew not wnat accession 01 lite ana i freedom, this unconscious deserter | joined innocently in the great Parisian riot and was a celebrity of the moment , Everywhere upon his passage the communists received him with acclamations and feted him. The commune was so proud to possess him that it displayed him, billed him, wore him like a cock- j ade. Twenty times a day the Place sent him to the Guerre, the Guerre to 1 the Hotel de Villa. It had been so extensively said that the communists' i marines were counterfeit marines, their | artillerists counterfeit artillerists. At . least this man was, without doubt, a ^.genuine Turco. To be convinced of it one had only to glance at that wide- ' awako face of a young ape and all the : savage movements of that little body agitating itself upon the huge omnibus horse as in the whirls of the Arab fan- i tasia. ^ Something, however, was wanted to complete Kadour'e happiness. He j wished lo ffglit, to make the powder j talk. Unfortunately, under the commune as under the empire, the staffs seldom went into the fire. When not encaced in Ovine trins or car ades, the poor Turco passed his time in the Placo Yendome or in the courtyards of the ministry of war, among tho3e disordered camps full of casks of brandy, always on tap, of hogsheads of baoon with the heads knocked out, of feasts in the open air at which was again felt all the hunger of the siege. Too good a Mussulman" to participate in these orgies, Kadour kept away from them, sober and tranquil, "made his ablutions in a corner and eupped? on a handful of coarse meal; then, after a little air on hisderbonka, he rolled himselt' in his bournous and fell asleep u}>on a step by the light of the bivouacs. One morning in the month of May j the Turco was awakened by a terrible 1 fusillade. The ministiy was in commotion, everybody was running, fleeing. Mechanically he did like the rest? leaped upoii his horse and followed the staff. The streets were full of wild bugle blasts and battalions fleeing helterskelter. People were tearing up the pavements and erecting barricades. Evidently something extraordinary was ftoing on. The ni arer one approached the qnai the more distinct became the fusillade, the greater the tumult. Upon I the Pont de la* Concorde Kadour lost the staff. A little further on his horse was taken from him; it was for a kepi, witn eignt goiu cords, in a great hurry | ta see what was passing at the Hotel de Yille. In a state of fury the Turco be- i gan to run in the direction of the conflict. As he ran he loaded his chassepot and said, between his teeth : I " Macach bono, Brissieu!" as in "his : view it was the Prussians who had just entered the cilv. Already the balls whistled about the obelisk and among ! the foliage of the Tnileries. At the ' barricade of the Rue de Rivolt the V avengers of Flourens hailed him: " Ho I i Turco! Turco!" Bnt twelve of them : were left, and Kadour alone was worth an entire army. Standing upon the banicade, proud , and gaudy as a flag, he fought with leaps aud cries beneuth a storm of canister shot. At one moment tl ) curtain of smoke which rose from the street parted a little between two cannonades ; and allowed him to see the red pantaloons massed in the Champ? Elysees. Then everything was confused again. He thought he had been mistaken, and made his powder talk in its loudest tones. Suddenly the barricade grew silent. The laf-t artillerist had just fled, after firing his fiaal shot. The Tarco did not stir. Iu arnbusb, ready to leap, lie firmly fixed his bayonet and awaited ; the pointed helmets. The line arrived, j Amid the hollcfc- tramp of the charge the cfficcrs called out: "Surrender!" For a moment the Turco was stupe- j fled, then he sprang forward, his gun in j the air. " Bono, bono Francese!" cried he. Vaguely, in his wild way, he thought this was the army of deliverance, of j Faidbarbe or Chauzy, which the Paris- : ians had expectcd for so long.

A correspondent sends to a New York paper the following graphic account of the destruction of Elms, Switzerland, through a land slip: The end came on the evening of Sunday, tho 11th inst.?in the " Saints Calendar," current in some parts of Switzerland, marked "The day of Felix, saint of luck and happiness." During the early part of that day the people ot Elms went about their usual vocations in tho usual way and without any anticipation of the terrible calamity which was so near at hand. The little church was well attended, hearty dinners were eaten, and afterward, as was tiie custom, most of the people, old and young, walked throngli the meadows or npon the mountain side. At 5 o'clock in the evening, while many of them were still out in the fields, some one was heard crying, "Look at the Plattenberg?look at the Plattenberg!" Those who followed the direction and are still alive say that for a moment it seemed to them as if every peak above the slate quarry was in motion ; then there came a rumbling noise, like faroff thunder, and in a moment they were blinded by clouds cf dust. When they could see again they found that a great slice of earth and stone had slipped down the Tschingclalp, burying tino houses and covering acres cf good land. Men and women were at the same time seen struggling among the ruins, and from all sides, friends, neighbors and relatives hurried to their aid. Unhappily, they hurried also to a terrible death. Even while they were engaged in their work of love the mountain above them moved again. This time the sound of thnnder was not far distant, but only too near at hand. The pine trees on the grassy slopes were seen to sink. A great cloud of dust and steam covered tho whole valley; thousands of tons of stone were hurled through the air. An all-overpowering wind pressure carried everything before it. There was a terrible crash, a sound of madly-rushing torrents, and all was still. Then the dust and smoke cleared away, the sun shone in a cloudless sky, and it was seen that lar as uie eye ccrnia reacn me once blooming Sernf valley was covered with from forty to 160 feet of black stone, moraine, dirtand slime. Forty dwelliugliouses, the best-in the village, together with dozens of stables and outbuildings, were buried far out of siglit, torn to pieces by the air-pressure, strewn broadcast over the moraine. One hundred and eleven of the p.ople of Elm were swallowed up in the general ruin. At last twelve strangers?Italian quarrymen? shared their fate. It was useless to think of rescuing any who fell in that awful death slough. Far out upon its edge, from a strong house, which was only partially covered with the slime and stone, four persons?a graybeard of ninety-one years and a mother with two children?were taken out badly injured, but alive. Every other human being overtaken in the path of the avalanche was forever buried out of human sight. Fifteen lumps of torn and bleeding j flesh, masses of pulp without shape or orm, were taken out. The others rest in a grave so deep and strong that no j man can uncover it. In one house ; thirteen persons who sat at a christening | feast, and who are known to have joked with each other in regard to the old superstition about thirteen at table, were swallowed up as they sat. On a lonely hillside, oat of the way of danger, an old man and woman lived with their only son. After the first slide of the mountain the father and son hurried down to tho help of their friends. They were swallowed up with the rest. A childless widow, who has become a chattering idiot, now occupies the lonely dwelling. Daughters who hurried to the help of their fathers, moth ers who would have saved their children, lovers who strove to aid their brides, were together buried in the awful moraine. It is feared that many of tboso who have been left behind will share the fate of the poor creature who, mourning a husband and a son, has gone mad with sorrow. The extent of the land slip is almost beyond belief. To give anything like anadequate id^a of it is no easy task. It is in no way to be compared to the Goldau slip of 1S0G, when, as will be remembered, 457 people lost their lives. In the latter case the mountains slid down and covered the village. At Elm a great mass of the Plattenberg, a mass 1,500 feet wide, at least 2,000 feet high' above the valley, and according to the engineers, from sixty to 100 feet deep, fell over upon the village, its farms, gardens and meadows. Tons of rocks were dashed entirely across the valloy, and now rest quietly 300 and 400 feet high upon the hillside. The airpressure was so great that houses were lifted up from their foundations and carried a distance of 1,000 fest. A barn built of heavy logs, and filled with hay, was carried entirely across the valley and overturned 200 feet high on the mountain opposite the Plattenberg. An iron bridge which crossed the Sernf was torn up, carried scores of feet away from its abutments, and now rests on end, more than half | buried in mud and loose stone. The j whole valley, as far as it can bo seen j from the village inn, which is still j standing, very closely resembles the ! bed of a glacier which has receded. As j I have already sta;ed, the masses of stone \ and earth which have fallen are everywhere piled up to a height of very many feet. At least 500 acres are covered in this way. The river Sernf has made i for itself a new channel through the j debris, and has flooded and ruined ! much of the land below, land which was ] not directly harmed by the avalanche of biuue. ou iu uiic vvuy ui uuuuier iuc i whole valley has been injured boycnd , all hope of repair. The loss in prop- : eity will reach not less than 2,000,000f.; | at the lowest estimate 123 peoplj have j lost their lives. The State engineers, | feariDg further land-slides, have for- 1 bidden those who have escaped to return to the houses which are standing,'' and in consequence more than 800 men, j women and chillren who, but a few : days, were prosperous and well-to-do, i are now almost without a roof to cover i them. Lord Lome's Costly Magjzine. "Would you like to buy that Har- ! pers Magazine?" asked the soft-voiced j and timid peanutter on the east-bound ! Union Pacific train the other day to a middle aged passenger who was looking | over the Harper and reading Judge , Goodwin's article on the Mormon situ-! ation. " No." said the middle-acrod rmrtv. " It is my own magazine, and therefore I do not caro to buy it." " Excuse me," said the poor little ! frightened peanutter, while the tears ; came into his eyes. "I fear yen vtant to cheat a poor orphan boy out of his j books Please pay me, sir, or let me j have the magazine back again. Ah, sir, you would not rob me of my goods." "No," said the stern stranger, "I do not wish to rob you of your book, my boy. but I bought this on the Utah Northern road and paid for it. "When [ I went into the eating-house for breakfast the train butcher took it out of my seat and sold it to me again in the after j noon. I was in the middle of an article ! when we got to the dinner station, so I turned down the leaf and loft it again j in my seat. I had to buy it once more. I Now the magazine has cost me $2, and you want me to give it to you so that you can sell it through Nebraska, no doubt. No, my poor little orphan lad, you may go and soak your head for an hour or two and bathe your tearbedimmed eyes, but I cannot give up my 82 magazine.

More than 100 Christian ministers and teachers, representing five denominations, are now laboring in Utah. A single Methodist college, tho Ohio Wesleyan university, is represented by two missionaries in Japan, six in China, three in India, one in Italy, two in South America and one in Mexico. The Methodist Episcopal mission to the Chinese in California, employing five missionaries and ten teachers, has five stations, four native helpers, 111 church members, and 500 scholars in the schools. English-speaking Roinau Catholics have increased from 9,000,000 to 12, UUlJjUUU UlU'llJg l-tic luou cagxAcj wmu increase of English-speaking Protestants during the same time being from 15,000,000, to 74,000,000. A movement is on foot, set in motion by the woman'.-; executive committo of home missions of the Presbyterian church, to raise a subscription among the women and children of America for the purpose of establishing mission churches in Utah in memory of President Garfield. The Protestant Episcopal Society for the Increase of the Ministry received in the last year?its twenty-fifth?$34,384, and added seventy-one scholars, nineteen of whom entered the ranks of the ministry. A largo share of the income of tho year has been added to permanent or endowment funds. The London missionary society issues a sketch of ten years' work at Lifu, one of tho Loyalty Islands. Tho population of the island is now entirely Christian. Out of the 0,570 inhabitants, 5,030 aro Protestants and 9-40 Roman Catholics. The nine churches have a membership of 2,585. There are more churches in Philadelphia than in any other city in the new world, there being over 550 churches and chapels dedicated to religious worship. Of these the Presbyterians, Episcopalians and Methodists have the largest number respectively, or about one hundred each. A missionary of the American Sunday-school Union in Missouri writes: "In eighteen days I have arranged for organizing live new Sunday-schools, addressed six old schools, attended ono Sunday-school convention, preached to three churches and visited several families." In illustration of the taste of colored church members in the Southern States fnr tiio ministerial career. Professor Simincns, of the Louisville Theological seminary, recently remarked that he knew of one county in which there were eighty colored Baptist ministers, licentiate and ordained, and some churches in which half the male members were in the same category. The statistics of the Protestant Episcopal church for Long Island gives th:. following figures for the present year clergy, ninety-seven; churches ani chapel?, eighty-three; churches consecrated, two; lay readers and catechists, fourteen: deaconesses, seventeen; baptisms, 1,939, of which 251 were adult; confirmations, 1,020; communicants, 14,950; Sunday-school scholars, 15,255; total contributions, S472.4S.S. The Rev. William Arthur, father of the President, was remarkable for his readiness in debate. Some years ago, at a meeting of the old Hudson River Baptist association, the liev. Mr. Walden, who had been settled in the West bnt had recently taken a church at Troy, said: "I can tell the brothren that if they think that any sort of ministers will do for the West they are mistaken. It won't do to send second or third rate men there." Mr. Arthur was on his feet in a moment, exclaiming, "Mr. Moderator, I never knew before why Brother Walden came back." SCIENTIFIC NOTES. Among the greater variety of forms on the mound-builder's pipes are those of animals like the elephant and irastodon. The liver and respiratory organs are developed in an inverse ratio, the liver being largest where respiration is most feeble. That fish sleep has been well determined by observations conducted by Dr. Hermes aud others in tho Berlin aquarium. Onion, garlic and leek owe their peculiar pungent flavor to a certain white, volatile oil, and contain much phosphoric acid. Capaine, obtained from trees in the Molucas and a part of South America, is used to forward digestion, as opium produces sleep. Some species of vetch throw their seeds to a distance, owing to tho elasticity of the pod, which opens with a jerk when ripe. Mr. H. C. Hovey finds the mean temperature of the Mammoth cave, Kentucky, to be fifty-four degrees Fahrenheit in summer. For those who have been suffocated by carbonic acid, the careful inhalation of ammonia has been proved a most efficacious remedy. In a recent note Mr. W. T. Blanford described the distribution of land in the Indian Peninsula and tho intervention of a vast plain traversed by the Indus, Oanorns nnd Tiranianutra. This ulain has been generally considered to have been the basin of a great sea, dui in the opinion of the author the evidence advanced does not appear to contain a single fact in favor of the sea having at any geological period occupied the Gangetic or eastern portion of the plain. The tract is evidently a depression area filled up to above the level of the sea through a long period of time. Shrewdness that Saved a Newspaper. The recent suspension for sir months of tho Uo'.os, writes a correspondent at St. Petersburg, would have brought a loss of no less than 170,000 reubles to its unfortunate editor, but happily precautionary measures had been taken in time, and the authorities have been completely tricked. Soon after the return of General Enroth from his mission in Bulgaria, one or two articles appeared in the Golos exposing, in cautious and moderate language, the absurdity of shmldirif Russian blood for the sake of making Bulgaria free only to band licr over a few months later to the despotio rule of a Battenberg. Of course the general was angry, and, thanks to the | influence be enjoys in high places, easily ] secured tbo suppression of the paper, ! and, when he bad no longer occasion to j fear being answered, published a fili- ; bustering letter, in which he accused i the Golosoi circulating "impudent and j unfounded lies." But for once the bel- ; licose general had reckoned without j his host, and the man of the pen proved j more cunning than the man of the i sword. Among the contributors to the ; (joins, Professor Modestolf has long : occupied a high and honorable place, ; and some months ago he obtained the j necessary permission to establish a daily j : political paper. The permission, it is 1 generally reported, was applied for in ( consequence of a fear that before long 1 the Golan might get into trouble, and, j therefore, no immediate steps were ; 1 taken to start the new journal, but when j the blow fell Professor Modestolf was | i ready, and within two days of tbo sus- j pension the first number of the Xew Hazett". was published. In form, type, j political opinions, everything save tbo j name, it is an exact reproduction 01 uio j defunct paper, and is even printed at the same oilice. All St. Petersburg is j laughing at the sly trick, which, for j 1 sharp business, reminds us of Alphonso Karr, who, when his paper, In (ruf/m, j was suppressed, continued to publish it j without any title at all.?Pell Mall da- , zettc. I .Newspapers. There are certainly no products of i the arts so cheap as the news-paper, and it is difficult to imagine any other thing. \ Were it not a medium for tho commu- j nieation of the commercial needs of : ' the community, which form a part of I its income, but are not strictly ono of 1 its journalistic functions, it would be j impossible to furnish what it does at j the prices which it gets. That on the whole it does not pay like other fur- i nished products?the cake, tho cigar, [ the oyster supper, the ribbon, the laces, j the glass of beer?can only be explained on the theory once advanced by tho Enj lisli philosopher who was asked why ; the manufacturers of ale were all mil- j lionaires, and the authors all poor, j "Because," ho replied, "for one man j who has brains, thirty have bowels."

Speaking of the recent death in Indiana of Mrs. Craig, known as Barnnm's fat woman, the New York Sun says: Dr. Oscar Kahn, who was doorkeeper at Barnum's museum, and acts in the same capacity at Bunnell's, remembers her. "There is a big difference in fat women," he said. "Some are very contrary and hard to get along with; but Rosy was very sociable and willing. We were very good friends. She was the only daughter of an Indiana farmer of ordinary size, and when Barnum got her she was about twenty-five years old and weighed 425 pounds. It is not true that she was the largest woman in the United States; neither was she tall, as j tho account says. She was only about | four and a half feet tall, and that made j her such a good fat woman, for she i seemed as big around as she was tall. She was very fond of her meals. When the fire in the museum took place I rushed to help Rosy, and a lot of us * CI 1 I managed to get ner out. quo who uuu- . ing at the time tho fire broke out, and all she saved of her things was a spoon and one potato. "About a year afterward she married Craig. He was not a big man, but he seemed to like bigness in others. Th? account is wrong'in saying that he was a big man, too. He came from Indiana, and took her around and exhibited her at fairs. The last time I saw her was ; in Troy in 1870 or 1871, when Barnum's circus was there. She and her husband came to the circus. They had been doing very poor business and were hard up. We took up a collection for them. After that I guess she got out of the show business and went back to Indiana to live. It has been ten or eleven years since she was in New York. I guess she was about forty-five years old." Speaking of the claim that Mrs. Craig was the largest woman in the country. Mr. Starr, of Bunnell's museum said : " Mrs. Annie Battersby, of Frankfort, Pa., is doubtless the largest woman. She weighs nearly GOO pounds, and is about six feet tall. She came from Portland. Her maiden name was I Perkins. She married a living skele- I ton named John Battersby. He was a tall man, with a large bony frame, but he weighed only sixty pounds. He i t -- 1 1.. 3 had a long beard ana wnisners, ana uau i no use of his lower limbs. It looked : very funny to see her pick him up ami i carry him in her aims like an infant. At length Battersby began to pick up until ho fattened out of the living skeleton line of business. Mrs. Battersby is about forty years of age. AdaBriggs, now in Europe with the midgets, weighs 520 pounds, and is five feet tall. Mary Cannon, who is with a traveling show, is bearded a3 well as fat. She weighs 385 pounds, and is five feet ten inches tall. The claim that Mrs. Craig was the largest woman in the country cannot be substantiated ; but she certainly was a very large woman." Successful Skln-(irafliiig. Some months ago we made reference to a case of skin-grafting in this city, performed by Dr. John Deyo, and we may now state that tho operation has proved wholly successful and the highest expectations have been realized. It will be remembered that the person operated on was Mary Foster, a little girl of ten years, who live3 in Mill street, who had the misfortune to plunge into and overturn on herself a boiler of very hot water. The upper I part of her body was badly scalded, particularly her right arm, which was wholly divested of skin from the shoulder to the tips of the fingers. The other burns got along well, but this arm causcd the child untold pain, while the great discharge from it was necessarily very weakening. Ti. ?a4 iVin n4-rt4>/\ r\t nflC'fl f !l n f. Jib WHS ill' I'll I a diuio ui vuu v?ov v??m? the physician named resorted to the j skin-grafting operation, which he per- j formed on Sunday morning, May 1, ; calling into service four or five young ' men who volunteered to take part in ! the interesting case of surgery. These young men bared their arms, and one at i a time sat close to the bedside of the | suffering child, while Dr. Deyo care- j fully cut from one arm of each man the j grafts of skin and quickly placed them, 1 while yet full of vitality, on the ex- j posed, quivering flesh on the scalded j arm of the little sufferer. Some of j "the boys" had sore arms for a few : days, but this was little thought of, ! and they now have the satisfaction of j knowing that their self-denial was not in vain. The second day after the operation was performed it was found that about three-fourths of the traniiplanted grafts of skin had adhered and , taken roov, and the little white specks 1 slowly grew in circumference till they | covered the intervening space, and j joining together gradually began to ' afford that protection from air of which j the injured arm was in need. The arm was pretty well healed in six j i 1 II -l-'M i%#% ! weeKs, ana me cnnu was uujo iu uc : about, but since then she had in play j twice hurt the still tender limb?once | in the latter part of June and once in j July, the latter time being struck with | apiece of sod, which raised a very large blood blister. The set-backs have been j overcome, however, and the arm may j now be said to have got completely i well--just as good as ever. There is I not a cicatrix in its whole length?not j as much as there is on the arms of some I of tho boys who supplied grafts?and ' the skin is as soft and smooth as any of the rest on the girl's body. It only j differs from the rest in being somewhat j red in color, but this redness is gradu- j ally passing away, while tho girl uses : the arm with perfect freedom and seems i to have in it the normal quantity of, strength.?Newbury (N. Y.) Journal. Rossi's Duel. Now that Senor Rossi, tho Italian | tragedian, is in the United States, the I cunning "advance agent" is, as they ! say, upon the street, "getting in his | work." His fino Italian hand is visible ; in the stories which are related of the j actor, particularly of his duels. Once while he was playing Hamlet in Milan ! a party of ladies and gentlemen became so boisterous that he suddenly turned i l>to linAO on/1 i ill 111U iiilUOb UI liio liUUO t.uvi luuiMiuvu) : "I shall keep silent so long as you are not." The actor was greeted with cheers, and the party retired. The j play being over Rossi was waited upon j with a card and a challenge. As ho ! was to leave Milan early next morning, the dnel would have to bo fought that , night. So calling upon the challenger, he proposed that they &hould light with j pistols in Rossi's apartment. This be- j ing accepted, and all being ready, a knock from the landlord and an inquiry if Rossi was ill interrupted 1 the affair. Replying that he was not, i and blowing out the light as if he were , retiring, Rossi said to his opponent: I " We must fight in the dark." The ' challenged party replied that that was ( absurd, but agreed to Rossi's sugges i tion that they should each smoke a i cigar, the fire doing service as a mark, j Two shots were fired, and Rossi's oppo- j nent got a bullet in his shoulder. The j noise aroused the police, who carried him before the justice, who said: "You j are a wretched knave, a monster. I shall send you to prison for live years;" I ' and the actor was locked up for the rest | of the night.

The following aro particulars of tho terrible disaster to a Mississippi stoamer near Daven port, Iowa. It appears that tho steamer Gilchrist left Davenport about 10:30 o'clock p. m., apparently in good trim and condition, bound for all points up tho river, loaded with & large and valuable cargo of miscellaneous freight and carrying in her cabins a fall list of passengers. Whon tho stoamer had passed under tho government bridge spanning the Mississippi and connecting the cities of Davenport and ltock Island, the cam rods of tho engine suddenly gavo way, causing tho entiro machinery to becomo unmanageable and useless. The river was very high, owing to tho recent and extensive floods, and tho current was consequently unusually rapid, so when tho steamer Gilchrist hail no longer her machinery to keep her bow up stream tho swiftly running river carried tho helpless vessel down stream at a rapid and appalling rate. Being so near the bridgo the steamer was thrown with tremendous and resistless force aeainst 0110 of the abutments. As the Gilchrist came in collision with the enormous mass of Btoae alio careened, causing tho weights on tho safety-valves of the Bteam chest to break from their fastenings and slide off. Tho valves no longer holding a chock on the steam in tho boilers, it poured out in hugo volumes and enveloped the hapless crew aud passengers, who were wildly endeavoring to uccuro life-preservers in tho main saloon, and scalded many of them in an awful manner. No sooner had tho steamer rebounded from the shock of tho collision than she began sinking, in which condition she was carried past and below Davenport, the shrieks and cries for help uttered by tho frenzied victims being distinctly audiblo by the largo crowds of citizens who soon thronged the banks, but they could extend no assistpneo as the steamer was hurled past their eyes by the turbulent river. All of tho small boats and skiffs, usually numerous on tho river, had been drawn ashore and laid away for tho wiutor, and to escape tho floods wh ch had prevailed all along the course of tho Mississippi river for nearly a fortnight, so there was no means of speedilv reaching the sinking steamer or tho mon, women and children who were struggling at that moment in the current. But tho peoplo on tho land did not stand supinely whilo their fellows woro perishing before their eyes, for tho other steamers that happened to be lying at tho bank immediately hastened into motion thronged by eager helpers, and all hastened to tho sceno of the disaster in hopes of recovering at least somo of those on board the Gilchrist. T)mrn worn nn linftrd twr>ntv.thrfln nnflflpn gers, four of whom were females, and a crew of lifteen. Only about eight persons were saved, and of these aomo were very badly scalded. Tlireo of tho lady passengers were killed or scalded to death. The Trouble iu Ireland. In consequence of tho proclamation against tho land league tho Freeman's Journal publishes an advertisement from tho league advising the Irish people, whilo remaining firm, to abandon for tho present all projected meetings which tho government could tako advantago of. Tho Dublin Freeman's Journal publishes a roplv by Mr. Egau, tho treasurer of tho land league,"to tho letter of Archbishop Croko protesting against tho manifesto of the league. He declares that tho archbishop falls into two gravo errors. The original programme of tho league, he says, was not " fair reuts," but tho abolition of landlordism. Thero is no comparison between tho present situation and that when Mr. Davitt and tho first of the "suspects" were arrested. Tho government has now thrown away all pretenses, uppcaled to bruto forco, and rappressed all forms of constitutional expression. He asks whether Archbishop Croke advises tho people to surrender at discretion, pay rent to their real jailors, anil resuscitato tho corpse of landlordism. Tho executive of tho land league liavo long and carefully considered tlio advisability of a striko against rent, and believe it tho only wise courso. Thcv aro confident that it must secure a suro and speedy triumph. The suppression of |tho land league goes on. The land league rooms in Cork and Limerick are occupied by polico. No mombcrs aro allowed to enter. Sixteen arrests woro made in on? day in various places iu Ireland. An indignation meeting in London, held to protest against ParneH's arrest and tho coereivo measures used in Ireland, was attended by over 50,000 persons. Kesolutions denouncing tho " cowardly and lawless fiction of tho coercion government In attempting forcibly to suppress freedom of speech," wcro unanimously carried. At a recent meeting of tho land leaguo in Cork it was dec ided to pursue tho agitation. ]>r. Kenny, a member of tho executive of the land league, and well known as the medical attendant of several of tho imprisoned suspects, has been arrested and conveyed to Kiluif.inhani jail, Dublin. Miss Hobnett, of liallvleliob, was also arrested for persisting in exhibiting a copy of tho "No rent'' manifesto in a window of her house, and refusing to remove it when remiested to do so by tho police. Her father, who is also a prominent member of j the land league, had been previously arrested I under the coercion act, ana is now in prison. The Dublin Freeman's J-.wnal publishes a j portion of an interview with Mr. Parnell, who i says ho thinks the farmers will to a great extent adopt tho "No rent" manifesto. One-half j of the Irish farmers do not hope for any bene- i lit from the land act. Small tenants who aro in debt to shopkeepers, he says, would obtain j considerable reduction, but "they would bo j compelled to sell their new interests in order j to pay their arrears of debt. If tho farmers j stand firm for a year they will bring the government and landlords to their knees. Tho light if a question of money and courage. Mr. Wall, editor of the Uoseommon Herald and a member of tho land league, has been arrested and lodged in Galway jalL ? ?-?? Mr. McMahon. a fiumer, and an active member of the land league, baa been found murdered near Ennia. - At a meeting of [the ^Dublin corporation twenty-three members voted in favor of Mr. E. Dwyer Gray's motion to confer the freedom of thacity upon Messrs. Parnoll and Dillon, and twenty-three voted against it. The motion was negatived bv the casting voto of the lord mayor. A prieat, near Clare-Morria, evaded police interlerenco by holding a land league meeting 'in his) chapel. It is thought this plan will be generally resorted to for future meetings. - . Tho'tenant farmers in the county of Waterford have resolved to start a " Tenant Farmers' Emergency Association," in view of tho suppression ol tho laud league. Tho " suspects" in Galway jail have passed a resolution approving tho "no rent" manifesto. Mr. O'Neill, tho organizer and paid secretary of tho Cork branch of the laud league, has been arrested. A dispatch from Dublin.\o the New York Irish World Hays: Arrests still continue. The land league has ceased to hold public demonstrations, but continues to meet privately in chapels and houses. The ladies' land leagues, through whom tho external work is now being done, are increasing both in tho towns and rural districts. There is an evident determination to hold on to the organizaton in somo shape. UNITED STATES SENATE. Extra Seaalon. On motion or Mr. Sherman the Senate proceeded to consider tho resolution, previously offered by him, calling upon tho secrelarv of the treasury for tho report of James F. Meline. Mr. Farley said that ho understood that tho report referred to had boon made by a commission appointed by tho treasury department, and was a matter with which Congress had nothing to do. Mr. Sherman replied that he had already stated that the investigation was of such a character as it was not usual for Con x- t ? J.~ ,1^ ?:iu. grcan lu hivyu nuviuui^ uu nnuj uuu iuu public prints intimated that there was something m the report that might injure a member of the Senate?ho (Mr. Sherman) being the Senator referred to?ho deemed it his right and his duty to his colleagues therefore to call for the report. If the statement was true that the report reflected upon him, it was proper for tho Senate to inquiro into tho matter. Ho very rarely noticed newspaper attacks, but when any paper or man impugned in the slightest degree his personal yitegrity ho wished to have nn investigation, aud to have the question tested, not only by law bnt tho strictest rules of personal honor. Mr. Farley stated that ho had never seen the articlo referred to by tho Senator from Ohio, and did not know that any reflection had been mado upon that gentleman. Ho wished to suggest if the report had to como to tho Senate at all, that tho testimony taken before tho commission bo also transmitted to the Senate. IIo put that suggestion in the form of an amendment.

At the suggestion of Mr. iavia, of West Virginia, who stated that ho might desire to offer an amendment, the resolution was laid over. Mr. Butler offered a resolution directing the committee on printing to inquiro why tho agricultural reports for 1S80 have not been distiibutcd to Congress. Adop ed....Mr. Sherman called up the resolution offered by him on tho preceding day for an investigation into tho disbursement of tho contingent fund of tho treasury department, after having modified it to as to lead as follows: "Resolved, That the committee on appropriation be directed to investigate tho accounts for tho expenditures of the several appropriations for contingent or other expenses of the several departments, including the methods of making such disbursements, tho character and disposition of purchases made, and the employment of labor paid from suoh appropriations, ami to report at as early a day as practicable what further legislation is necessary to secure tho proper disbursement of such appropriations, and that the committee have leave to send for persona and papers and to sit during the recess of the Senate." Tho resolution was adopted, and on Mr. Sherman's motion the Melino roport was referred to tho committee on appropriations.

The about-tobe bride was young, refined, and, as her masculine acquaintances aver, beautiful. The groom had' been introduced into the best circle of Uniontown people a few months before, and had completely won the confidence of the young woman's parents. He was handsome, scholarly and of fascinating manners. A week or so ago the friends of the bride met at the church where the ceremony was to be performed, and soon the bride herself entered, with flowing veil and rosy cheeks. The clergyman, whose services had beeu secured for the occasion, eyed the. bridegroom closely, and when the latter drew near the good man dropped his book as though both amazed and horrified. " I cannot marry this man," he said, recovering quickly. " Why not, sir ?" asked the bride's father, rifing in anger from his seat and moving toward the clergyman. " Because I marrieJ this man to another woman at Evansville, Ind., less than a year ago." Some of the ladies fainted, the bridegroom-elect gesticulated violent protestations, and the wedding party collapsed. Investigation showed that the charge was well founded. WHAT IS GOOD FOR MAN IS GOOD FOR BEAST. Mn. J. A. Walton N one of the most prominent ."table proprietors and blooded-stoek owners In the northern part of the city of Philadelphia,? 1245 N. Twelfth street. Mr. \V. has devoted the best years of his life to the Mudy and training oi norses, mm ne is eonsmereo an aumoruy in all madors pertaining to horseflesh. Feeling desirous of hearing what he lunl to say in pntpria pe rsona regarding the merits of St. Jacobs On. as a remedy for some of the ills that horseflesh is heir to, ihe writer resolved to go direct to Mr. Walton's stables for the purpose of interviewing him on the subject. Mr. Walton talked freely upon the matter and said: "Alter many years active experience I can safely say that I consider Si.

[New York Spirit of the Timer] Ex-Governor Bowie, of Maryland, the owner of the famous race-horse Crickmore, while pleasantly chatting with the managing partner of a heavy advertising firm in Baltimore, was somewhat surprised by the question addressed to him, whether he would bo willing to grant the privilege of rechristening his favorite horse for the sum of ?5,000. The offer, certainly a tempting one, was courteously and thankfully declined. It is hardly necessary to suggest that if the proposition had been accepted, the great Crickmore would for the future add new and brighter luster to the fame and popularity of St. Jacobs Oil. Among American cities tne most Presbyterians are in Philadelphia, 26,346: roxt in New York, 18,155; then in Breoklyn; 11,159.

Stevens, Esq.: Hair Sir?About two years ago a cancer made its appearance on my face, left side of my nose. When I first noticed it, 'twas about the size of a pin-head (very small). It increased in size, and spread on my face until it became as largo as a common cent. I tried all kinds of remedies, and advice from a physician. It was spreading and oatins into my flesh very fast. I was very much alarmed. I went to seo a pliys-ioian who cured cancers; he did not giw mo much encouragement. It pained me very much: I (suffered night and day. It would bleed at times very profusely. Everything was done that could be to try to euro the cancer. My brother had a cancer on his lip; ho submitted to an oj>eration. being well discouraged. I was ono day in Mr. Wood berry's apothecary store, of this town. He cave me your pamphlet, containing many cures by the use of Vegetine. I found on page l'J where Vegetine had cured a cancer on a lady's nose. I then bought a bottle of vour Vegetine, and it proved a groat blessing to me; 1 could see good effects from it right away. After taking throe bottles it stopped the spreading of the cancer about tho edges; it checked the eating into my tlesh. I could see it was gradually healing. I kept on taking Vegetine. tho cancer slowly disappearing, unjil I had taken sixteen buttles and it coiuplotcly cured it. It has lett a large scar on one side ot my nose: and I feel it my duty to recommend Vegetine to all like sufferers, as it is certainly a great "Blood Purilier." I am now sixty-three years of age, and Vegetine h;is greatly improved my general health. lours most rcspeetfullv, WM. 1'. ('LEAVES, 34 Federal St., Beverly, Mass.
