W. A. C. Ryan, of Cuban celebrity,
sailed in the Ocean Queen, under the as?
sumed name of Ashbury, after slipping

arms and ammunition. 200 or 300 Cu?
ban troops wero expected to go aboard
as passengers, and during the voyage
seize the steamer, land tho troops and
arms at some point in Cuba, and then
release the steamer. 200 United States ]
troops aboard tho Ocean Queen, for Ca?
lifornia, alarmed the Cuban troops, who
remained ashore. Ryan is going alone

rived, shipped the stores, and departed

Committee of the Houso heard fifty
women, to-day, npon tho point that the

messago to Congress. It can bo posi?
tively asserted that what the President
proposes doing is to transmit to Con?
gress a largo number of reports from
military commanders, complaining of
outrages in the South, and in a brief
message rccommeud that some means
be adopted to secure protection. Now
that tho San Domingo joint resolution is
adopted, there is good reason to believe
that the three Commissioners will be
ex Senator Wade, of Ohio, Rev. White,
President of Cornell University, and
Bishop Simpson, with General Frank
Seigel as Secretary. The expedition
will snit os soon os these gentlemen are
ready.

In the Sonate, the ocean cable matter

A FIERY COUCH.-On Sunday morn?
ing, a most singular nnd at first thought
incredible occurrence wnw brought to
light at Atlantic dock, a man being dis?
covered asleep and still alive, in u "fiery
furnace." The (ucts are as follows: On
Saturday night, "Captain J. L. Lonna
bery, of the tug J. K. Guile, returned
from removing a ship in tho harbor, lay
up over night, as is the custom of tugs,
at the Atlautin dock. The fires were
oarcfulled "banked," und tho fireman
went ashore for a few hours. On Sun?
day morning, he returned, sud on enter?
ing the boiler-room to inspect his fires,
he was surprised and horrified at the
Hight of a human head just within the
ftimaco door. He naturally supposed
life to be extinct, for when the fires were
hanked the embers wore raked to the
back of the furnace, and fresh fuel was
added. The fire was larger than cus?
tomary and tho heat was intense, but the
discoverer seized tho supposed lifeless
form by tho head and thc body was
drawn quickly ont. It was "red bot"
and "fit to roast;" one shoe was charred
off and the other was burned to a crisp.
Tho feet were baked, aud the skin,
where the clothing peeled off, was
roasted. Notwithstanding all this, the
man was most evidently alive, and send?
ing forth a heavy drunken snore. He
wsH freed sufficiently from the dirt and
ashes to bo recognized as a "dock wol
loper." named John McGrath, who had
once been a fireman, but who had "lost
caste" by his fondness for fire-water. It
appeared that ho had freely imbibed ou
Christmas day, and after going his bot?
tom copper at a soloon, was kiudly cast
out by tho gentlemanly proprietor as
having outstayed his usefulness. After
coming within an nco of "freezing
point," he eluded the watchful ey o of
tho watchman, and stretched himself for
tho obtaining of needed warmth and
shelter from winds that blew and cold
that bit, in tho placo designed for another '
Bort of fuel ns before shown. Ho loses
nothing on the shoos, ns they were not
his. He expressed no contrition for his
beastly intoxication, but severely "bless?
ed" tho saloon keeper for expelling him
to tho "gusty flaw" while celebrating
Christmas. Captain Lounsbery, in u)l
his long experience, says ho never before
saw or know of such a case, and no one
knowing the condition of things ot the
timo would deem it possible for ahuman
being to live five minutes, much less to
sleep there, except to sleep his last
sleep, but such is tho fact, and there's
another case for soionco, ns showing
what amount of heat the human body
can stand.-Brooklyn Eagle,
The stories of the correspondents] at
tho Prussian headquarters are not re-as?
suring to tho apprehensions of the stook
exchange. One is that Moltke has ready
prepared a complete plan for the inva?
sion of England, and the Prussian offi?
cers assure their English friends that its
execution will not be at all difficult.
Around Paris the rioh furniture of hun?
dreds of villas has beon burned to warm
tho soldiers. "Nothing burns so well as
piano wood." At Versailles they are
eating nil the cows, und tho destruction
of every young animal as soon as born
will make famine in the futuro. At ono
point wo are told of 50,000 men sleeping
in tho opon air on a frosty night, warm?
ing themselves from time to time ot
huge fires of unthreshed wheat, which
added their glow to tho fires of burning
villages.
A woman in Terre Kauto glues her
husband's eye-lids together when ho gets

A D?attfi&W?? WOS?AN.-A xoxaS pa?
per relates how-a. woman residing in (ho
neighborhood of Denton, ic that State,,
persuaded her husband to go homo.
Alighting from her hone, she went
rapidly to a drinking saloou, whero ft
number of sovereigns were having a
"high time." She tingled out tho ducat
looking man in the crowd, and, walking
up to him, seized him by the arm nnd
ordered him to put down the glass,
which ho was about to druin. He
dashed down the glass and rushed away;
tho lady followed, and rlnally cornered
him iu the billiard-room. Shu told him,
in a finn, determined voice, that the
plaoo he was in and the course he was
Eur sn in g would not answer for her hus
and; that ho WUH wasting her property,
and that sho would uo Iouger consent to
be disgraced and impoverished by him.
She demanded his pistol. He refused.
She took it from him, cocked it and pre?
sented it at him, and told him he must
leave or die. Ho concluded to leave. She
marched him out as a prisouer of war to
where his horse wus hitched, ordered
him to mount, aud in a few minutes the
two were leaving towu, tho wife ridiug
iu the rear of her captured lord, with his
six-shooter in her hand.
Ono of Philadelphia's meanest men
has fouud that tho pecuniary value of
the Christmas presents he received is
l<*ss than tho value of those he gave, and
he hus written a letter totho Press, com?
plaining of it.

DfcAll BIB: Tho GYPSUM submitted by yon

ever scon for its freedom from imparities of

j of one per cent, of insoluble matter. If it
can bc supplied of similar quality, it cannot
fail to prove a groat boon to Southern agri?n!?
turo, as there is no crop to whioh it ia not .be?
neficial, whether applied alone or in conjunc?
tion with other manuros. Very respectfully,
I your obedient servant.
