The .drat voice which j attracted his Attention was that of a female, i whoy. rind In Irish brogue, said, or rather j screamed: "Oh, ye baste, would ye be after ^ hugging me, a lone widow, with no onb here to -protect herr This waa followed by a| soirnd resembling a person being slapped in the' face, and an apology : "Miss, I meant no offence'; I beg your pardon." The turnkey hastened to tho cell from which the conversa tlon proceeded, and was greatly astonished to find Kelly aea,te it In a corner or the room ap? parently asleep. Puzzled at what he had heard, the turnkey slowly walked away from the cell,' and In five minutes afterwards he beard a German and negro in an altercation, each man 'taking turns in beraliog one ano? ther.' 'Atter this had been kept up well through" the hight, the turnkey stole upon Kelly unawares and found him Indulging in most extraordinary ventriloquists perform? ances, having evidently enjoyed his confine- j ment far he Uer than his captors did. - : -Enoch. Arden cases have so multiplied that they seem to be a part of life's common experience; so mnch so that the public are giving Tennyson less and less credit for ori? ginality, in the plot of bis gracefully-told tale. Something-the nearest like it has been dis? closed in Ohio, where about eighteen years ago a young man married, lived with his wife lor a year or two, and then went away in a speculative venture, promising to be gone not more than a couple of weeks. His weeks extended to months and they to years, and still no tidings came to the sorrowing wife, wno, finally, listen i Dg to the advice of friends, accepted7 a wealthy man in the place and was married to him. About Bix years ago a man esme into' the town and wandered about the place. He then went to the village hotel and asked what had become of Mrs. P-. Learn? ing her, story he went away, but not long ago the lady rec?;-?d a telegram saying if she wished to see her ?rat husband to come to Newcastle, Penn. She did so, taking her sec? ond husband with ber, and found "Enoch" on bis death bed. He told ber the tale of his hardships and disappointments; how he strug-1 glad and failed, resolved not to return until be could with a competence. When he did so be found her as has been described, and quietly went away. By his will his property went to his Wife and children. - -JL'tale' of Incredible. horror comes to us, from Illinois. It 1B well for the journalistic j mind that'lt ls not often called upon to de? scribe an event of such Inky sad unmitigated gloom. The time was August, the skies were far, when, seated In a raliway car, a bright, blooming, bashful and beautiful young bridal j pair went forth from Peoria on the first stage j of that Journey which ends, lt may be, In the grave, or haply In Chicago. The husband of an hour was all pride and tenderness; the j bride all bonnet and blushes. As the slow j train moved from the station, the fair young ! being incfta tlous'.y put her head out ol the win- ; dow, perchance to scent the morning breeze, like Hamlet's lather's ghost, perchance to wave a last farewell to the weeping friends of ber girlhood. Too, too fatal moment ! A tel? egraph pole did not decapitate] her;-no, ah not That were )oy compared to- Has? tily bringing ber head within the car, she j burled an agonized face in her hands. The terrified bridegroom ls said to have instantly expressed 'himself, with great presence of | mind, in this touching and memorable lan? guage: "What was lt, darling ? What fright- j ened It, dear? Tell its own hobby! What' makes lt cry r> What, Indeed, 0 vicious Fate L She had dropped a lovely and expensive set of teeth oat ol the window.

Jadge Melton, in a letter which \ found in another part of to-day's NEI plies lojjhe letter of Mr. Reuben Tomi in regard to the alleged complicity latter in the notorious bribery by t which the State Se?alo was persuat pass the famous Phosphate bill ov Governor's veto. Ic will be noticed th charge, as re-stated by Judge Melton, i somewhat in foi n, though little in and substance, from that which elicit! flat and specific denial of Mr. Tomli If the Bolters' candidate should" see plead "not guilty" to the charge nov tioctly and formally made by his ace the issue.of veracity will be fairly ma between himself and the candidate for arer on the "regular" ticket. Tho Senators who voted "aye" on the fina sage are surely able to settle lhat is; the satisfaction of all parties not i m mei ly concerned. Let us have their Testio Ttl? Proposed Convention. It is galling to the surprised travel! sit still while bandits rifle his trunks make free with- his money-bag; but, as as there is a pistol at either ear, and a i net behind, there is no use in making e turban ce. This Is. very, much the. poa of tho Conservative voters in Sooth ( Itu a; with the difference, however, that may save something by not trying to everything. It is not surprising, nndei circumstances, that a chivalrous newsp like the Columbia Carolinian should that the Conservatives occupy "a hum "ting position." This is a natural tkoa? bat the practical , fact is tbat, for once, whites have sacrificed sentiment to Be They would rather "pick up the eran than have no bread. The Carolinian vises a policy "more in keeping with "manly instincts of a spirited DOODIO." proposes that a joint Democratic and Llb Republican Convention be held in Ocle "for the purpose of decidiog upon i "coarse of action which beBt befits onr "terests, and the cause of genuine refori Sorely the real "manly instinct" is t which makes the best of the situation, i the election o? one good man, as far ai goes, is "genuine reform." The proposed Convention ia to be calle? Conservative Convention, but, to all inte and purposes, it would be a Democrc Convention. All citizens of Sooth Cu lino, who are not members of the J publican party, are known aa Democrs and any movement which is not Republic! in fact and in name, is stigmatized by I Radicals as Democratic. The name Ci servative would add nothing to the streng of the Convention ; nor would the co-ope tion of a corporal's guard of Liberal I publicans give it greater force. The call i the Convention would be treated as the iii step towards nominating a State ticket, a this, if tho press represent pnblic opinio the people are resolved not to do. It is trnly said by the Carolinian tb neither of the Radical State tickets now I fore the public is entitled to public sappot The Convention, therefore, could not coi mit the Conservatives to a united suppo ol either ticket This throws the Oonve tion back to doing nothing, which can t done without its help; or to nominating third ticket, which would be fraught wil evil consequences. There is no manliness ia fighting for tt sake of fighting. And there can hardly t found, in Sooth Carolina, an intelligent ma bold enoogh lo-assert that a third tickt would stund the ghost of a chance of bein elected. As soon as the ticket was ai nounced the Bolters would withdraw froi the contest-they might be glad of an ei cuse for throwing upon the Conservative the responsibility or the election of Stat and county olllcers o? the same infamou kind as those who were elected two year ago. Tho very holding of the proposei Convention insures the election of th Moses ticket, without any of the local gain which, ic the absence or a third State ticket may be secured. In the opinion of the Carolinian the poli cy of supporting one or other of the Radica tickets, "just as it may be practicable t( "make a good bargain, in the matter ol "county officers and members of the Legis? lature" will "produce disappointment and "end in failure." Then, that failure will be due to the apathy or dullness of the Con? servative voters. We know that the rival factions are already bidding for the white vote, and that this competition will give many counties better county officers and members of the Legislature than they have had since the beginning of reconstruction. Every advantage or this sort will be abso? lutely thrown away, if there be a Conserva? tive or Democratic State Convention. We are confident that the Carolinian is not obstinate in its opinions, and that its motives are high and pure; but we trust that the Conservative voters will speedily give unmistakable expression to the opinion that any State Convention, for any purpose, would be unwise in itself, injurious to the trae interests of ihe State, and totally destructive of every hope of accomplishing any local refqrm. How ls this for Reform ? Mr. Collector Clark is one o? the chief cooks of "The True Republican" movement, professedly inaugurated in the iotercsl o? re? form. "We have already noticed the playful expedient by which the Customhouse em? ployees were all coaxed into contributing a slice of their salaries tobelpon "the cause," and although the disclosure of the fact in THE NEWS caused a terrible rrttling among tho "True Republican" dry bones, there is not one of the small army of reluctant offi? cial contributors who lias bad tbe hardihood to deny tbat the assessment was actually levied. We now bear, on equally good anthority, that two colored Customhouse employees, Cyrus Gaillard and W. H. Thomp r-ju by name, have for the past two or three months been employed exclusively in can? vassing for and organizing the Bolters' party. It ia not to be wondered at, perhaps, that Federal officials in South Carolina should, in many things, choose to ape the rascalities of their master in Washington; but we respectfully call the attention of President Grant to the startling fact that salaries paid out of Uncle Sam's capacious pocket are thus being used to defeat the blessed "Regular" Republican ticket in the loyal State of South Carolina. If he can stand this style of Civil Service Reform, so can we. _ _ _ The Dogs of St. Bernard. This is not only an iconoclastic, but a real? istic age. Men not only trample down old forms and ceremonies,but the most beautiful traditions are critically scrutinized and rulh ' lessly depreciated by modern writers and travellers. The "pious monks of St. Bernard" are known to us all for their kind hearts and charitable lives, but chiefly endeared by those acts In which an humble ally plays a noble part Ever with their name ls associated the scene where "the traveller, by the faithful "hound, half-burled In the snow, was found." And now this picture, too, is clouded over. The monks are still ready to stretch out hos? pitable hands from their bleak abode. The travellers are more numerous than ever, but, sad to say, the brute instincts of the dogs can? not be ?trained to comprehend the difference between the bona fide objects of their care and the worthless peregrinating nuisances who infest the locality. It ls slated that "French correspondents who have settled on "Mount Saint Bernard complain that lately .'they do not find the dogs of that locality so "discerning as fame has reported. They ob "ject to being rescued by quadrupeds in tbe "snow when they seek lt for the express pur "poseof keeping cool; they have some dlfli "cully in making the animals understand that "they don't want to be saved or violently "dragged by their clothes to the good fathers, "who have a way of rubbing them over with "spirits, when heat ls the very thing they are "trying to avoid." This statement ls Bad, but conclusive. We can no more respect the St. Bernard dog, who sees no difference and makes no distinction between a frozen wan? derer and a French correspondent, than the pointer who straightens his tall lor sparrows or wastes his time in hunting field-larks. Tile Shipbuilding Industry. "It ls an Ul wind that blows no one any "good" ls an old proverb, of the truth of whloh we continually find new examples. Thus we see that one of the most serious pres? ent troubles ot Great Britain ls likely to result in material benefit to the shipbuilding trade of Ihe United StateB. The New York Shipping List says: The check put upon iron ship? building In Great Britain by the material ad? vance in the three principal elements of cost labor, coal and iron-together with the im? proved aspect of tbe carrying trade all over the world, has already Imparted an Impetus to shipbuilding in Maine. A merchant of this city, Just returned from a tour of our north? east coast, states that there ls a large number of vessels ol tbe small and medium class In course of construction, and that many yards tbat have been abandoned for ten or a dozen years are about to be resuscitated. Those who bave taken the ground that the days of pro? fitable wooden sailing ships have passed, never to return, will probably have reason to change their minds before they are much older. Congress afforded a little relief to shipbuilders at the last session, and at the next we feel persuaded they will afford Billi more; for not alone the maritime interests, but government itself, would prodt by the re? habilitation of the shipbuilding industry of the country. _ _ The Kev. Dr. Fuller. It ls pleasant to know that the Baltimore Baptists have built for the Dr. Ful 1er spoken of in the following paragraph taken from the Boston Era, a church of white marble, in which he now preaches. No higher encour? agement than ls found In the career of Dr. Fuller could be given to young men who are j called to the ministry: I Professor Hern?n Lincoln, D. D., of the New I ton Theological Institution, preached at the First Baptist church of Wickford, R. I., on Sunday, September 1. The sermon was on the the "Power of Thought," and In the course of his remarks he related the conversation be? tween the distinguished Rev. Richard Puller; D. D., of Baltimore, and Dr. Preston, o? South Carolina, at the time of his (Mr. Fuller's) con? version, which was listened lo with marked Interest by the entire audience. Dr. Fuller, previous to his conversion, waa one of the most promising young lawyers of all the South, from one of (he firetlamllies of South Carolina, with brilliant political prospects, and at the time of his conversion bad Just been admitted to the bar, but, lor the love he bore his Mas? ter, threw away lils golden luture to enter a life which seemed to bis friends to be one of cruel confinement. The earnest entreaties for him to reconsider made no impression on lils fixed mind. Where is he to-day? Did Fame shut her doors against him when be entered the ministry? No! to-day he is one of the most eloquent preachers in our land, fore? most, a pillar of strength In his denomination. The Boole Trade. The annual book trade sales have com? menced in New York. The transactions this year, it Is said, will be very large. The cata? logue ls very full, embracing many firms that ! heretofore have not entered into these sales. The more popular authors are largely repre? sented in the editions to be offered. The works of Charles Diokcns, Thackeray, Bret Harte, Longfellow, Tennyson, Hawthorne, Charles Reade, and others, are seen on exhi? bition on the shelves of the auctioneers, In all kinds of binding and all sorts of type. Reli? gious, scientific and historical publications are seen side by side with long lists of English importations, and Juvenile books in the great? est profusion, together with large Invoices of miscellaneous works. Truly, of the making ot books there ls no end, and li a man's enemy, at some period of his life, does not write at least a duodecimo, he is a remarkable exception, and has cheated his expectant loe of an opportunity of revenge be had every reason to count upon. -The proclamation by the Governor calling the elections for Wednesday, the 16th day of October, will be found In another column.
