It is a great r/atifioation to ns to see within our ,.rbor the gallant squadron whioh has ronght you to our shoros. It is a still rester gratification to us to receive moog us ono of the imperial family Jl Russia, whose illustrious ohlef hos 'done so muoh for civilization, and in I whoio han da the possession of power has, nuder tho guidance of Providence, been devoted to the noblest of uses the aooi?l and political elevation of those who como within the sphere of its oxer ?oloe. The long and uninterrupted riondly relations between Eaaaia and he United States has naturally created a strong sympathy on our part in all that concerns her welfare* and has caused ns to regard with deep interest her steady bot silent progress Eastward, shedding at every ad vanee the lights of Christi? anity and civilization over regions which have been buried for ages in compara? tivo darkness. Yonr Imperial Highness will, no doubt, find- much in our ooun try whioh is novel to a European, which .will be remembered as a source of useful suggestion in political societies. In the name of t! J citizens in whose behalf I speak, I tender you a sincere welcome. The Prince replied as follows: G KN EBAL DlX, TiATvrrm AND GKNTLB MKN : I beg to express my warm thanks for the manner in which I have been re? ceived. The feeling whioh exists be? tween Russia and the United States is as strong as it is lasting, and nothing can disturb it. I shall pass rapidly through New York, to pay my respects to tho President, whose high oharaoter is greatly appreciated everywhere; but, on my return, I shall have the pleasure to accept your hospitality, BO kindly ten? dered me.

ATLANTA, GA., November 21.-Acting Govornor Conley vetoed the bill order? ing a special election to fill tho vaoanoy created by Bullock's resignation. THE II RA LT H OF QOEEN VICTORIA. The almost constant retirement of Queen Yiotoria from publio view, since the death of Prince Albert, has been made the occasion of many uncharitable, and some very absurd statements. None have been more unkind than the re? cently extensively circulated story that retirement was but a Boreen for her in? sanity, behind which sha babbled in her paroxysms like on idiot with tho spirit of her departed husband. It can easily be understood how the mind may be? come morbid under the influences of grief and isolation; but mere retirement from the glare of public life, while yet surrounded by every social influence royalty might command, makes but a poor apology fer suoh suspicions. There have been several informal con t??r? fl i rtt-,*->*-\r? ?lt r\ - i ^ - ?/\frt rx ri .?/?? *\$ ?kMM*v*tvuu ?uu utwi j a wa Ot A uu b\/ \J a late, and now we have tho positive assur? ance of the Queen's physician that "all reports that her Majesty has shown any symptoms of mental woakness, are un? qualifiedly false." It is a pity that suoh testimony has been deemed necessary in the case; but since it is given, it is to bo hoped that with it ends the poor sen? sation. A gentleman who has long beon a resi? dent of California, gives to tho Louis? ville Courier-Journal the following bits of information about.that State: Chinese labor is what is ruining Cali? fornia. A whito man goes there and finds that ho can get bat six bits a day for his work, und that his expenses are not less than a dollar a day. No work? ingman can wear a white shirt there. The large number of suicides reported from California are, to a great extent, results of a scarcity of romunerative labor. Not one-tenth of the amount of business carried on in San Francisco, a few years ago, is being done there now. That railroad bas killed San Franoisoo. The letters sont from there by corres? pondents do not tell tho truth, and are gotten up in the interest of property holders, who want to get their property off their hands. California is no place for anybody to go to now. i State rapacity rules (aays the New York Express) at Columbia, S. C., while Federal bayonets protect this rapacity in several Counties of tho State. Be? tween the rule of rapacity and bayonets the people are well nigh ruined. In the history of the civil war, or in the events whioh have since transpired, there has been no parallel to this stato of things, and the people of South Carolina are most sincerely to be pitied for the dou? ble fire they receive-first from the Fed? eral Government, and then from tho State capital. Relief must soon come, or the Stato will be beggared through State frauds, taxes, and Federal despot? ism. The Texas Ranchero says that Captain M. Kennedy, the prince of stock-raisers of Neuoes County, butohors annually 10,000 head of beeves, at a net profit of $10 coin per head, amounting to the handsome sum of $100,000. "During the late drooght, he sank and curbed 300 wells on his ranche, from whioh it is estimated that 1,000,000 head of stook daily quenched their thirst. A San Francisco white mau recovered from an ulcer by permitting himself to be patched with a niece of flesh from a healthy negro, ana the San Franoisoo Examiner now alleges that tho entire skin of the pationt is turning black. ?ta A lilVcly QhNt. A lot tot from the little town ot Aaron Ind,, on the Ohio and Mississippi Rail road, gives tho partionlars of some sin gular manifestations. The oorrespon dent states that fifteen or twenty yean ago a peddler was in the habit of passing throngh that country selling notions who drove a two-horse team. That on? night, abont 9 o'clock, he passed tbi house of a Mr, Bubeck, who lives som< miles East; of Harriuunville, on the Bry anteville Road, going toward the forme: plaoe. This was the last that was eve: seen or heard of him. The foot of hi being missed and failiug to make hi regular visits, created some talk in tba neighborhood at the time, but soon die? away, and the peddler was soon forgot ten. On thia road, about one or tw? miles from White Biter, and some tw< and a half miles from Harrisonville, is i very rough hill, np which the road runs and on the top. on the South-west aid of the road, is an open field, long sino abandoned. Near this field, and righ by the side of tho road, stands an ol? dead tree. Some three weeks ago Mi Rubeok was passing along this road, 01 his way home from Harrisonville, a abont ll o'olook at night. The nigh was quite dark, and it was with oonsidc rabie difficulty that he oould keep in th road, or prevent his horse from stumblin over the stones that obstructed the high way. He finally, however, reaohed th top of the hill, and, when abont twent roda from the tree, he heard a noise ove in the old waste field above describee whioh he took to bo two dogs engaged i a desperate fight. Their growling, bart ing, snapping and scratching was fem ful. It was, apparently, the most sar guinary dog fight he had ever heard. A the moment, it created little or no sui prise. Ho only wondered that two dog should meet at that time of night so dil tant from any human habitation, (fe there was no farm-houBO within u mile < this field,) but, on second thought, hov ever, ho concluded that they had bee out on a sheop-hunting expedition, an( haviug accidentally met there, got int a fight. He had not long to cousidor npon thi however, for soon the olankiug of chaii attracted his attention in another dire tion, and, looking toward the tree, to h astonishment, he beheld large broke liuka of what seemed to be a boat chaii red-hot, fulling around the tree sizzit and scorching. There seemed to be i least twenty of these links falling at ti same timo, and continued to fall about minute, wheu Mr. Bubeck was startle almoat out of his wits by a heavy groai whioh seemed to como from tho earl beneath him. Strange as it may up pen np to this time the horso had not mar tested the loaat uneasinesa, and Mr. B beck himself had not imagined aaythii connected with what he had seen i hoard but what oould be accountod f upon a rational theory. The falling i red-hot chitins, ho admits, ho thought little extraordinary, hut had conclude within his own mind, to revisit tho sp tho next morning and gather them u believing, as he did, that they were m teors that had fallen from the sky in th peculiar shape. At tho groan, his hot reared and ourvetted, plurged forwa and started to run. Now c?cne the me trying time to Mr. Bubook's nerves, f just in front of him he heard tho pinn mg, rattling noise of a rnnaway ten coming toward him, and the noise mai f os ted every indication that their oom would be directly over him. He tri to rein his horse out of the course it w taking, but his efforts were to no pi pose. On, on carno the frightened tea on, on toward it plunged the ungovei able horse. 'Twas a moment of terril suspense. AU the deeds of an boni life came crowding npon his mind. ! offered ono short prayer for safety, a gave himself up for lost, when, mc astonishod than ever, the noises as BI denly ceased as they had oommenci His ii ors ti still fretted and triad to ri but Mr. Bubock held him steadily in t road. An exchango calculates that nineo I surrender of Lee, Grant, in "swingi round the circle," has wandered a <3 tance of 64,058 miles, not counting no berless drives, horse-back oxcursio and little trips that have escaped t< graphic mention. At thin moment Mr. Rubeok hear voice calling for help, and then the of murder fell upon his ear, and as was getting out of the way, he was m than ever startled by the exolamati tho voice coming apparently direc from the old field, "For God'seake, J don't mordor mel" Having by this time passed tho field, he made his way home with seonig or hearing anything farther, in a stale of mind better imagined tl described. Ho spent a very rest night, and tho next morning rodo o tho country, telling his experience the night before, and requesting tho of his neighbors to assist him in solv the mystory. He gathered somo oi or ten, who attended him tho follow night, whon the same scenes were posted. The dogs barked, the red ohains fell, tho unearthly groans rose from the ground, tho frightened h came thundering down upon them, voice was again heard in tho w field calling for help and begging not to murder. Most of the witnesses to this seo demonstration of the unearthly visita if saoh they may bo called, bec panio-strioken, and precipitately i Those who remained oould fiad no sonable solution of tho mystery, tho one or two, who knew intimately distinctly romomberod the missing dler, are willing to swear that it wai voice that culled for help. The noxt day more citizens gath upon the hil), and dug as closo tc spot whore tho barking dogs wero h as they oould, and what was their prise when tuoy unoarthed a akeh Some parts of tho olothiug were preserved, whioh corresponded with usually worn by tho peddler. Up dose examination a fracture was fi in the skull, whioh looked as thou was made with a heavy instrument, os an axe or hatchet. These latest discoveries have cn considerable oxoitoment iu tho neigl hood, sud some think it explains mystery whioh surrounds the disap ance of tho peddler, and will ultim lead to the disoovory of his murdot ho was murdered. A gushing writer says that "Nal ohoioest product is woman; and mo being tho interior fount that BU?TUSI with bloom, ladyhood is the coi mato flower-tho florescent nen womanhood-a distillation from it perlatives draws from this fount ennial freshness." It all may b things have risen so since tho wai you can't most always sometimos riably tell what yon leant expeot. f?mi mi- T 'liiii M r.Ti?Ti? fin- ??aa A SmatLAij FAM?LY.-About ono mib , from Jameatowri, Loun?viHet tbore livoi . one of the moat remarkable families -ii : the United States. The father of th? - family-a Mr. James Jeffries-tell I hil i own story. He says that ho was mar ; ried before he was seventeen years old, bis wife being only five daye youogei i than himself. They lived together BO ven i years without ohildren, when his wife i gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl. In the fifteen years wbioh followed, nine? teen children were born to tho happy oouple-eaoh of the first three births be? ing twins, and eaoh subsequent birth al? ternating between twins and single births i until the fifteen years were accomplished, and nineteen children composed tho fa? mily circle, seven pair of twins being born during the time. Five ont of the nineteen have died, bot of the others, the boys who have grown havo made large men ; the girls are of good size, and both sexes are healthy. EXTREMES OP FORTUNE.-A rather sin? gular instanoe of the extremes of for? tune oomes from the Pacific slope. One? of tho early pioneers of San Fran? cisco waa Wm. Ellis, a printer by trade. By his industry, ho accumulated quite a sum of money, which he sent to his wife in Chicago to bo by hor invested in real estate. In 1861, property in the latter place took a sudden rise and Ellis became wealthy. ?o ho returned to Chicago, whore he has resided until rooontly, when he took it into his head to revisit San Francisco, taking with him his wife, who was a sufferer from pulmonary ail mon ts. Soon after his ar? rival the Chicago iiro occurred, whoreby he was a heavy loser. While preparing to return home his wife died. To complete his ill luck, ho was a passen? ger on a train which was thrown from tho track, whereby he was sevorely in? jured, und he now lies in the hospital at Sacramento. Tho carpet-baggers are trying to dis? turb the titles to real estate in Mew Or? leans in order to grab BOLUC- of tho most valuable property there. A largo por? tion of tho real estato In Louisiana is held undor grants and titles from tho former French and Spanish Govern? ments. These titles, under old surveys, ?havo been hold os good, without con? firmation by the United States; but under some reoent Act of Congress, the! provisions of which are not generally known in Louisiana, it is olaimod that in all cases where tho title has not been confirmed, or whore the surveys cannot bo found in tho land office, the property is public land, which must be turnod over to tho United States, subject to entry under the provisions of tho home? stead law. A few days ni?ee, in Wheeling, Yu.,' two small boys got into a dispute, which was ended by ono of them running a red hot bar of iron iuto tho breast of the other, which caused his death.
