A Washington dispatch to the New York Herald states that Beuben 0. Young, a Ku . Klux prisoner, who bas been pardoned by tbe President, arrived in that city from the Alba? ny penitentiary on Saturday in a dying condi? tion. He was on his way home to Youngs ville, Alabama. He was interviewed in the cloak zoom of the House of Representatives, where he was attempting to sleep. The reporter nays: -*-: '?? He appeared to Meep In death." His face had a leaden, ghastly look, with' wrinkles deeply and rigidly set, as if void ol sense and motion. My companion touched him lightly. He raised bis head slowly and cast a languid look .toward me. It seemed to me the look ol A galvanized corpse. He was dressed In a snit of homespun. HIB face was thin and ashy, with a three weeks' beard upon lt; his ?yes and cheeks were sunken In, and thin, Sray hairs straggled down upon bis forehead, e was asked whether he wus treated kindly In prison. .He answered: "All the officers treated me kindly except one overseer, who was harsh to me. When I was too ieeble to work I bad to remain In my cell, which was very cold. I sometimes asked him to let me go to the stove In tbe corridor to warm my? self, but he retuned. 'Don't be hard on an old man,' I would say, but still he wouldn't let me go ont." I was confined in the same cell with my eon RInggold, wbo ls still there, fie has to .work in the shoe shop from daylight lill evening; but he has been In good health never missed a day In the shoe sbop. if lt hadnot been for blmflshould bave been dead . long before this. He' took good care of me." The dying man gave: the following history ol his case: Kl "It was all the work of a man named Barnes. He ls a lawyer. . He hated me, and wanted to have me put ont of the way. For this purpose he went to John D. Young, a Ku Klux prisoner, now'ia the Albany peniten? tiary, ont no relation or mine, and asked him to turn Stale's evidence against me, bnt John . refused. The next day he was arrested and ? ' - tried, and, like me,, sentenced to len years. This man Barnes wasy a -United States com? missioner, and had^snllmlted power in my county. He waa on the grand Jury which found an lu diet ment against me. ? They want? ed to convict somebody, and they selected me and my son, Blnggold T. Young. There are now six .Ku-Klux prisoners in the Albany I penlte^tfctty-three lrom TaJlapoosf; and three from Ra?idc Iph Cou n ty. One of them.

Francis co Bulletin of December 7 m ?toes the following summary of the doings of ? 'the men who "salted" the so-called diamond .*?r^girado: -. Arnold Slack and J. B. Cooper are practical mlaers ci- much experience, and In tbe sum -mer.ofl871 they, were employed by Harpen? ding to go to the Burri Burri mine, owned by -nimbin New Mexico, forty miles from the /Almona line. Harpending desired to effect a ? 800 ot the mine to English capitalists, ? said he' made use ot the practical knowl '?edge of Arnold Slack and Cooper to en -able him to make favorabe representa --Hons concerning the mine prior to Its sale, in September, 1871, Harpending leit for fm, and the three mining experts started ?lr Journey to San Francisco. On reach in Defiance they stopped io prospect In Iclnlty, having heard of the finding of )le stones In that region. Their search rowned With success. They fonnd a large number of stones, of whose value they wer&Jgnoran ty t he ruby business being at that time out of their line. They concluded, how? ever, to bring--the stones to San Francisco. On their arrival here they learned, quite to their surprise, that some of the stones were garnets, some sapphires, and probably some -rubles, wi h now and thea a black stone tv j aembltng the black diamond. They thought of taking Bteps to secure possession of tbe ooaniry in which the stones were found, but had not capital to carry out the plan unaided, and lt was finally determined to endeavor to .ellan interest, meantime keeping the loca * tlon a secret. While endeavoring lo nego? tiate a sale, finding many difficulties in the way, and losing confidence In the value of the stones, they concluded to change tbeir plans. They determined to sell out their discovery, and to get a good price they set about de ?A vising means to make it appear valuable. . The character of the discovery must be . , chan ged from a ruby to a diamond field. This idea was' suggested by tbe remarks of ex? perts and Jewellers, who told them that ll they - had diamonds instead ot garnets they would have something worth money and they could not see why diamonds lc New Mexico would not be as reasonable a story as diamonds In Africa. Finally v some one, lt ls said, proposed to obtain some diamonds of little value from r the Diamond Drill Company, and mix them with the stones. The proposition was accept ? ed, and the small diamonds, worthless except lor drills and other diamond-pointed Instru - mente, yet genuine, gave therefore sufficient foundation for hone of more valuable stones still nnfound. After mixing these with the stones lound in New Mexico, they submitted "4fce tot to Frontier, Bellmere <t Co., which firm gave them a certificate that the lot con? tained genuine diamonds. The plot had now progressed far enoc -h to enable them to make definite proposals tl C3pltalisi8. Arnold sought out G. D. Roberts, meeting him on the street, as lt casualty, and hinting to him that he had a "good thing" After rousing Ronerts's curiosity .he explained .to him the difficulty under which tbe discov? erers labored, and offered to sell an Interest. " On no account, however, Arnold said, would they sell the whole; they only wanted means to secure title aad prosecute the work. Arnold 1>ropo8ed to organize a company, and sell a United quantity of stock. Roberts said he would write to Harpendlng, and have him Join in the-enterprise. He did so. and Harpen? dlng wrote back that be would be In New York In a few weeks, on his return, and Tran ted some of tbe stones sent lhere tobe tested prior to bis arrival, h Accordingly, Arnold and Slack, with a bag foll of stones, went to New York lo March last, and deposited the stones with Tiffany <fc Co., whose experts selected some ot the dla - monds for examination, and pronounced them genuine. When .Harpendlng arrived from Europe, he brought with bim William M. Lent .nd aa Englishman named Rubery, who came from Europe ona tour. Lent at once became Interested in tb? statements made by Tiffany's experts, and the stories of vast quanilties ol stones In their native beds, located on United States Boll, and In a region tbe title to which could be secured before outsiders could Jump the claim. Tiffany & Co. valued the bag of J stones at $160.000, and on their assurances Mr. Lent placed such reliance that he Imme? diately determined to Join In the enterprise. Harpendlng, also, was anxious to go In, bnt I Arnold DOW began to olav shy, and utterly re fased to state the location Ol tbe .field, though Slack pretended that he waa willing to reveal the location, vttth Arnold's consent, and that he Slack, would sell bis Interest-one-third for $100,000. "According lo the statement af one informant, this sum was actually paid to Slack, and afterward divided between Arnold. Slack and Cooper, the last.named keeping in the background. Arnold and Slack agreed to go and point out the ground as soon as the weatber would permit, which would allow them two months in which tb perfect their plans. Snowing that the Fort Deflanoe region . would yield no diamonds, and that If they took the agents of Lent & Co. they would have to "salt" the claim, they decided to pro? cure African diamonds for tbat purpose, and Arnold visited London, with the result already known. After his return it was concluded that aa they must salt any way they might as well selecta more accessible Meld, so they de? termined on the location In Colorado, and Arnold went again lo Fort Defiance and pur? chased a large quantity of stones from the In? dians. With these and the diamonds pur? chased In London, they prepared the ground visited by Jania. . . A long statement ls made' by Mr. W. M. Lent, president of tbe Diamond Company, showing how the sharpers led OD the original lncorporatow, and finally got their cash. WENNING A CAPITAL PRIZE. Great Rejoicing In Columbas, Indi, ana-Thc Lucky Holders of Ticket 6450 In the Lo a ii vi Ile Lottery Standing Guard over the Precious Ticket. [Columbas (Ind.) Letter.] On tbe 3d day of November, 1872, three gen ' tlemen stood around the stove In tbe queens ware aud grocery Blore of W. D. Summers, in the town ot Columbus, Ind. The great Louis? ville Library drawing was the topic of con veisation. Tbe names of the persons com ?08l ng the party were T. C. Burgess, W. H. -ebb and Wm. D. Summers. The chances of winning a prize In the lottery s?beme were discussed In all tbelr bearings tor over an hour, when one of the parties proposed that ten men unite and make up a purse of one hundred dollars, and send for eleven tickets. Tbe proposition was accepted, and the ques? tion next came np whether they should be wbele, half or quarter tickets. Two of the party were in favor of whole tlokets and the remaining member wanted a proportion of each. Burgess, however, swore that be would have nothing to do with half or quarter tlo? kets, and finally-carried his point that there : ehonloV be,^niy"'eleven tickets, and they all whole Ohes.1 ': - SENDING TOR THE TICKETS. The next morning, W. H. Webb, a lamber contractor -ot Columbas, advanced $100 and 'sent li to Thomas E. Bramlette, In Louisville, in a registered letter, Instructing him to for? ward In return eleven whole tickets in Louis? ville Library Drawing. The tickets came to hand by the return mall, and were deposited for safe keeping in the safe of Wm. D. Story, a druggist or that city. Before the tickets were deposited, however, Burgess picked up ticket 6150.and said that he "was sure that tick? et would draw a big prize." Hewas laughed at by the persons present, but he still contended tbat 6460 was sure of a prize. The three gen? tlemen who had ordered the tickets then went to work to fill up the club. They bad consid? erable trouble. A hundred citizens were im? portuned to go in, but they replied that it was "too thin; money was too tight/ and they would as soon throw a $1P note In the fire ss to Invest lt in a lottery." After two weeks' canvassing io the city the club was finally made up. and was composed of the following gentlemen: T. C. Burgess, Wm. D. Summers, W. H. Webb, Albert Jones, Gideon Sbultz, O. C. Crawiord, Charles MoCalla, J. Frank Pan? cake, Lloyd Morledge, and Henry A. Both rock. rANCAKS'S TICKET. A little incident here occurred that let an? other man in as a part sharer in the club. When Mr. Webb called upon Mr. Pancake lo get his ten dollars, Mr. C. A. Terrell was standing by, and Pancake remarked : "Ter? rell, don't yon want to go in with me for my share of the tickets !" Terrell said: "Tes; here's, a five dollar note that I won off ol a Democrat on the eleotlon, and I'll put it in with you." throwing down the five dollars as he spoke. In the meantime the citizens of Columbus were Investing considerably In the drawing, and when the day bad arrived for the drawing to lake place, excitement was at lever bent in the quiet little city. The tele? graph office waa crowded early ID tbe morn? ing, and everybody was on the ott* vive to hear from Louisville. At about twelve o'clock on the day of the drawing E.G. Bondurant, assistant superintendent of the J., M. and I. Rall read, received a telegram tro m Louisville, staling that No. 6460 had drawn the capital prize. Mr. Bondurant knew that tbe club as above held that number. He made no secret of the dispatch, and gave it to the public. The news spread through the town like wild Ore. Tbe wildest excitement prevailed; small boys turned somersaults In the streets; the mem? bers of the club were almost Insane with doubts; fears, anti excitement. They could not believe lt. It was too good to be true, thought they. is IT POSSIBLE ? Io the meantime dispatches were received from Louisville con?rmleg beyond the possi? bility of a doubt that 6460 was the number of the ticket that had drawn $76,000. Themost incredulous were Batlsfled; all but the mem? bers ot the olub, who were still afraid to be? lieve in their good fortune. They thought it might be a mistake after all. They-advanced a thousand reasons to that effect. Mr. Bondu? rant knew there could be no mistake, and to prove his confidence in the news,' offered one ol the members five thousand dollars for his share in the club. It was Crawford, and be wonldhave taken lt had lt not~been fur friends, he holding that "a bird lu the band was worth two in the bush." The evening train came along and brought a passenger from Louisville. His word settled lt. Tloket No. 6460 had drawn the capital prise for $75, 000. A gentleman who was an eye-witness describes the scene when the truth was fully and definitely known as one of the most ex? citing be bas ever experienced. "Nothing, slr, ever equalled it in this town since tbe sur? render of General Lee to Grant," he re? marked. : *' ? THS TOWN WAS ON FIRE, tbe people crazy and wild with excitement Tbe stores and business places nt the members of the lucky club were thronged with the ex? cited populace. Tbe holders of the tloket were hugged, kissed, and congratulated by their friends. They In turn were as muoh ex? cited as the people. Several of them are de? scribed as being nearly mad with joy. Tbey could notait do wo,stand up, ordo anytblng but run around from- one place to another, asking ii there was any further news. They were still afraid that they would bear some? thing tbat would b'.ast their hopes. The house In which the lucky ticket was locked up was guarded all night by two of the holder?. Hun? dreds of people tried to get a sight of the ticket, but Mr. Story would not show lt to any one, not evon to the members of the club themselves. He told them that lt was 6460, and that was all he would do for them. Some of the inember0 wanted to look at lt a?ralo, but Mr. Story was firm and refused to exhibit lt. The parties who had been solicited to Join the oiub aod h<.d refused were _ MAD AS HORNS TB. j jg?

Besides, owing to the manner in which they are pre? pared, these Wines contain scarcely more than the traces of active principles, and these always in variable proportions. The QolnJum Labarraqae, approved hy the Academy of Medicine, constitutes, on the contrary, a m?decine of determined compo? sition, rich in active principles, and on wich Physicians and Patients can always rely. The Quintan Labarraque is prescribed with great success for persons of weak con tilution, or for those debilitated by various exhausting causes or past sickness; for youths fulfiled by too rapid growth; for young girls whose development takes place with difficulty; for women in childbirth; and for ui;eJ persons enfeebled by years or illness. lt is thc best preservative against Fevers.
