A Washington editor is indignant bc eauso a compositor beaded his editoiiul, "Tho Champagne Opened," when he wrote, "Tho Campaigu Oponed." He says that printer is always thinking of something to drink. CHIEF JUSTICE: CHASE IN THE FIELD FOR THE PRESIDENCY.-The following letter, of the 27th nit., says tbe Wheel? ing (W. V.) Register, was addressed to a distinguished Democrat of this State, asking his committal to the Chase move? ment: The friends of Chief Justice Chase, with his cousout, und with a full know? ledge of tho present political situation, aro of the opinion that now is a favorable time to bring forward his claims for the Presidency. At a recent meeting of somo of tlieso friends in Washington, where tho matter was fully canvassed, tho enclosed call was drawn up, aud is now being circulated for signatures. As soon ns wo hour from tho parties ad? dressed, the call will bo officially pub? lished. Tbe object of this is to ask tho URe of your narnu as one of tho sigocrs, and to request, if you consent, that you signify your ucceptanco by replying at oucu by telegraph. We expect soon to issue an address, M tating tho rousous for thc present movement. I can only in brief soy that by receut developments it is now apparent that the liberal Repub? lican movement, originally started for a good purpose, is in danger of being de? flected into a channel which will destroy instead of conserving the great end for whicli conservative men throughout thc country are laboring. Wo wish, in time, to arrest disorganization, aud piuco before tbe country u platform and a namo wbich will bohl the opposition elements until we huve time to tho? roughly organize. Tho battle will bc fought in tho Ciuciuuuti Convention be? tween the friends of Judge Davis nod tho friends of Chief Justice Chase, each reprcBentiug widely different political viuw.s. A comparison of the platforms upon which ouch stands will show you already what we mean. The euclused declaration of principles bas boon pro souted to Chief Justice Chase, aud he gives these principles hi8 unqualified cudnrsenient. John Quiney ? dams, Jr., of Massachusetts, is understood to stand upou this platform, and it is generally conceded thut lie is tho proper person tu be associated with the Chief Justice as second upon tho ticket. That tough outlaw, Hildebrand, an? nounces his fourth demise. He perished this timo in Southern Illinois, by the pistol of an avenging policeman. Ac cordii g to tho veracious account, Hilde? brand aud his bund of out-throuts, ou Tuesday of last week, crossed the Mis? sissippi aud eutered Illinois, intending to travel quietly across the peninsula be tweeu tho Mississippi aud Ohio Rivers, and finally take up their abiding place in Western Kentucky. On* Thursday the party made its appearance in Pmckuey- | rille, Perry Couuty, where, beiug un? known, they felt themselves secure from pursuit. Ou Friday the party became j druuk and noisy, flourishing their wea? pons and threatening to create a corner in fuuerals. At leugtb Hildebrand, be? coming separated from the rest, was j overpowered by numbers and secured, together with H?X knives aud two pis? tols. An officer then started with him toward tho office of tho police magis? trate. They had proceeded but a short distance when Hildebrand Buddeuly drew a seventh knife, which he had couceuled iu his left sleeve, and with it I made a thrust, at tho officer, striking him in the left thigh and inflicting au usly wound. The officer fell to the I gronnd, but, recovering himself in a moment, drew a pistol aud fired, shoot? ing Hildebrand through tho breast, kill? ing bim almost instantly. His com? panions immediately fled in the direc? tion of Kentucky. Tho effects left by Hildebrand cousist of a miscellaneous collection of urticlcs stolen from tho ."Missourians, aud are said to clearly es? tablish his identity. The locality which he will select for bis next dissolution is uot -stated. General Cooper, Adjutant-Goucral oi1 tho armies of the late Confederacy, is now, though seventy years old, living in almost abject poverty near Alexandria, Virginia. He is tilling a fow acres of barren soil, aud working like a common laborer to support his wife and child. A movement is being made iu Virginia to aid him. Subscriptions may bu scut to Colonel Arthur Herbert, (lato Colonel 17th Virgiuia iufautry,) treasurer of the association, Alexandria, Virginia, or to Captain C. D. Walker, of thc Virginia Military Institute. [ Baltimore Evening Journal. Our Western Indians were long sup? posed to bo tho greatest exports at tor? ture, but tho Chin?se, it seems, are moro advanced iu this fiendish capacity. A courtat Houg Kong lately condemned a criminal to bo killed by wakefulness. Tho culprit-a strong and healthy man vas kept awake constantly for fifteen days, his sufleriug for the last few hours being of the most excruciating charac? ter. At la?t ho dropped down and the heart ceased to beat. Roasting olivo is a mercy compared with suoh torture. Tho Detroit Frw Pms'says: "Louis iana has a sulphur mino which extends clear to-China, it is thought;"aud yet, ovon if it does, it will barely bo able to finish tho amount of sulphur that justice will domaud in making a final disposition of tho gaug of Radicals who are infesting thut State. Au English writer advises young ladies to look favorably upon those ongaged iu agricultural pursuits, giving as a reasou that their mother Evo married a garden? er. He forgot lo add, however, that thu gardener lost his situation iu couse queuco of tho niatoh. Tho State debt of Alabama was, in 1SG1, 85,039,751.37; tho present indebt? edness, actual and contingent, including railroad bonds, is $33,381,967.37, being an increase of 832,-112,31*2.50, mostly under Radical administration. Tbe Senate tarin bill repeals the in como lax immediately. Minister Sickles is to bo retired from tho Spanish ruissiou. .Two CIIBRIOA.II ANECDOTES.-Western Pennsylvania bas a clergyman named Talbot of considerable reputation for originality and wit, of whom the follow? ing anecdotes are told: On one occa? sion Mr. Talbot had como into church late, after a long journey, and was spat? tered with mud from head to foot. He entered the meeting without brushing the dirt from bia clothes-indeed with? out waiting for his breakfast, and a huge pair of raw hide boot?, size about fifteen, covered with a coatiug of "moistened dust," were painfully conspicuous. His congregation was too good-natured or too respectful to look at his appearance, and no remark was made uutil he ?food up ut a small deal table, which was bare of all covering, to preach his sermon. The tuble was without cloth, aud the dirty raw hide boots were singularly distinct objects when compared with the neat surroundings of thc altar. Yet not a whisper was heard uutil the reverend gentleman announced biB text: "How beautiful ire the feet of those who stand at the gates of Zion." For a moment lhere was only a sup? pressed tittor; then, nil at oDce, the whole cougrogotiou, with an electrical seuso of the humorous, burst iuto a sup? pressed roar, iu which Mr. Talbot joined. A certain sharp fellow (in his own con? ceit,) huviug heard ouo of Mr. Talbot's sermons thought he would joke the clergyman a little, and meeting him soon afterwards he remarked: "That was au excellent sermon of yours, Mr. Talbot, on the mirado of the wiue. Tho ouly trouble was it was not original." "Not origiual?" exclaimed Mr. Talbot, with a twinklo comiug for a moment into his serious eyes; "why, you surprise me." "No doubt," replied the wag, shaking his head, "but I have a book at home with every word of it in." "Yon are mistaken," replied Mr. Tal- I bot with nu air ef severity; "this is au unfounded, and, excuso me, a serious charge. " "Well, I have an excellent box of ci? gars at home," replied tho wit, "aud if I cannot couviuco you-I know you never make wagers-I will make you a nreseut of it." "Agreed," repliod Mr. Talbot, with an air of great confidence. Next day the gentleman brought up a large dictionary, anil endeavored to con? vince Mr. Talbot of the truth of bis re? mark. "I have heard the joke before." ro plied Mr. Talbot with a laugh, "and you will find that iu my sermon I used tho phrase, chorea rustica, wheu alluding to dancing, aud unless you have got your proof, I will thank you for tho cigars." Ho got them. The people of Nashville aro amazed at the performanoo of a boy who ploys one tuue on thc piano with his left band, another tuue with hisarigbt, whistles a third and boats tue bass drum with his toes. We aro glad thut this deplorable fiend lives as far away as Nashville. If he resided in our neighborhood a pro? found souse of duty would impel us to cram him full of percussion caps aud theu drop him oil a Frouch roof upon the pavement, so as to suap that prodigy off, as it were. A well-known doctor in a certain vil? lage of New Hampshire, a few days bo-1 fore tho recent election, sent a letter en? closing mouey to a shoemaker in Lyun, I a voter in tho village, requesting him to come homo and vote. Tho poor fellow, instead of purchasing a railway ticket, got intoxicated with thc doctor's money, aud wandering off beoamo frozeu to death. The coroner, iu his examination of lire body, found thc letter and then sent the body to tho doctor's address with the remark, "Herc's your voter." Au Arkansas paper says that iu Law? rence County, as some persons were clearing some laud, they set fire to a largo oak log lying ou thu ground, when they noticed a rattlesnake crawling out from tho log. They turned it over, when a den was disclosed, containing seventy-two rattlesnakes, two green snakes aud one king snake. Twenty -two of tho rattlesnakes had from fourteen to eighteen rattles, and measured from seven to niuo feet in leugth. False rumors of a Bouapartist plot having been discovered, uud several ar? rests made, havo circulated in Paris. Apropos of tho conspiracy in which Maz? zini was said to have been cugagud at thc time, we bear from Berno that a de? tective officer has been sent by the Fed? eral Council to tho Canton Ticino, "to watch the Italian revolutionary proceed? ing? which are being secretly carried on there." An exchango says: Cleveland has in? vented a patent bug-buster. "Worked with au air pump. All tho apertures in a room aro stopped but one, nt which the deadly bug-buster is placed. By ex? hausting tho receiver, a current of air is produced stroug enough to draw the vermin out of thc room, through the air pump, into thc hopper, where they are put under tho inlluenco of chloroform and stabbed in the back with a pitch? fork. Mr. Henry Winn, whoso serions ill? ness, wo announced last week, died on Wednesday morning. Ho was an old man, had been much ulUicted, aud passed from earth to tho regret of all who knew bim.-Abbeville Medium, Tho Jackson (Miss.) Clarion is inform? ed that the proprietors of tho hotels in tho ?State gcuerally will close their esta? blishments in the ovont of tho civil rights bill being approved and becoming a law. Essex County, Ya., is interested iu the marriage of two sons of tho second wife to two daughters of the third wife of tho same man. Au Iowa widow has successfully buried three bu.? ba lids named Smith. TOBACCO .-It is seldom that we see a good word in print for this muoh vito perated weed. Nearly all the world, mistaking abuse for uso, has combined to set it down as a nuisance and a crime. Strange enough, though, despite the protests of moralists und the warnings of the medical profession, the use of to? bacco, so far from abating, has increased year after year until it has become al? most universal. Tho great Dr. Mott did not hesitate to championize a moderate use of tbe article, though we believe he stands alone in this respect among medi? cal writers. Another ami more recent author, whose name is unkuown to us, thus descants upon its virtues, as practi? cally illustrated by those who restrict their uso of it withiu the bounds of mt doratiou: So much, and ofteu too mach, non? sense is prated about the evils of tobac? co, that its virtues rarely get a hearing; and yet the latter are many and great. To quiet nervous mirent; to soothe a milled temper; io favor calm and im? partial thought; to steady and clear (not : to cloud) a confused, overworked bruin; to counteract the effects of physical ex? haustion-these are just the things which tobacco does; and if it eau effect these ends safelv, why, then, denounce it? Jones aud his wife were always quar? reling about their comparative talent for keeping a fire. She insisted that just so surely ns he tried to re-arrange the sticks with tho tongs, ho put the fire out. One night, the church bells sounded an alarm, and Jones sprang for his fire bucket, eager to rush to the conflagra? tion. "Mr. JoueB," cried his wife, as be readied the door, "Mr. Jones! take the tongs." A correspondent of a cotemporary has copied tho following epitaph, to be seen in tho church-yard at Malaga: "Here lies Juan Perez, who was a good brother, a good son, and a good husband. NOTE. -Do not mistuke him for a younger brother, who bears the same name, and is now in penal servitude in Ceuta." "Escuse my left hand," said Wiggins, as ho shook hands with a friend. "Cer? tainly; I never take umbrage at nature," was tho reply. Referring to Ecclesiastes x, 2, the text is, "A wise man's heart is at his right baud; but a fool's heart is at bis left;" and tho consequence is, that they have not spoken since. Texas has copper and silver ore in practically inexhaustible quantities, and coal, which rivals tho best anthracite of Pennsylvania. These minerals are to be found iu tho region known as the Staked Plains, in the North-western and other portions of the State. The New York Herald, not content with the exploits of its verbose corres? pondent among the outlaws in tho howl? ing wilds of North Carolina, has sent nuother, it is said, in search of Dr. Liv iugstone, tho great African explorer. Secretary Delano forbids tho explora? tion of tho Hinch Hills country of Da kota by gold-hunters. It is part of the Northern Sioux reservation.
