A man named John Inman, who has for some time past been living on Mr. Iler's ranch, San Juan Capistrano, committed suicide about 12 o'clock on Saturday last by taking strychnine. The cause of the act is unknown. Capt. J. B. Moor, Railroad Passenger Agent, was in town yesterday, and gave us a call. The Captain fairly bubbles over with a humor before which the most desperate case of ennui melts away like mists before the morning sun. A German named C. D. Miller was found dead in a vineyard in Los Angeles. A double barreled shot gun was lying near the body, with both barrels discharged. Whether it was a case of murder or suicide is difficult to determine. A report was current in San Francisco the other day that Duncan and LeWarno, the two eminent financiers, whose management of the Pioneer Bank has brought them into notoriety, had been seen in the southern portion of this county. We desire to remind our readers that connected with the Gazette is a first class Job Printing office, from which is turned out printing of a very superior style. Letter-heads, envelopes, bill-heads, cards, circulars, labels, tags, etc., printed in elegant style and at prices which will suit everybody. About 9 o'clock on Saturday night a rattling shower of rain fell in this vicinity. At Mr. Saxton's rain guage recorded a fall of one-eight of an inch. At Kremer's ranch the sides the foot-hills were washed in many places, and on Sunday morning the water was lying at their base in great puddles. At Bergeman's Ranch near Temecula is a curiosity in the shape of a natural artesian well, throwing twenty minor inches of water more than a foot above the ground. The hole it issues from is perfectly round and the surrounding ground is firm and solid. Besides this he owns another spring which yields thirty inches of water. He is well fixed for irrigation.-Republican.

Quite a number of Stanford's China men, who have been delving among the sand dunes and cactus plains of Arizona, celebrated their transfer to civilization on Sunday last by looking upon the wine when it is red, getting hopelessly incbirated, blind drunk, as it were. And in order not to interfere with the peacock and dignity of the town of Anaheim, and thus bring on a conflict with the Marshal, they repaired to the plains east of town, and—neath the sheltering shade of the spreading aage brush by the limpid waters of the Anaheim ditch they quaffed the nectar and quoted Confucius until oblivion overcame them. It was truly a pastoral scene. At a distance of two or three yards apart along the banks of the ditch for half a mile the Mongols were strewed. It was a beautiful, a touching evidence of the power of the whiskey of civilization and the capacity of the Mongolian to appreciate its effects. The exquisite humor of the scene had been appreciated by some Canessian, who had heightened the effect by covering one of the Chinaman with a great quantity of earth and sand, only his head being left exposed.

It seems that about noon on that day Mr. Hazen drove a wagon to his corn field, intending to leave it there until it was loaded with corn. He unhitched the horses and prepared to mount one of them and return home. He stood on the tongue of the wagon and made a vault, but either from some movement of the horse or a too vigorous spring he failed to keep his seat on the horse's back, and rolled off. His head struck on the edge of a gully, and he fell in such a manner that his neck was dislocated. Death must have been instantaneous. The accident was witnessed by a Spaniard and a little girl, and there being no question as to its being an accident, Judge Bailey decided that no inquest was necessary. The deceased was a man of much intelligence, and was well liked in the neighborhood, where he has been a resident for the past seven years. He leaves a wife and four children. One of them, a man grown, went East a short time ago with the intention, it is said, of getting married. Justice Clark had an individual named Thomas Camp before him yesterday, charged with stealing two pairs of pants from Dan Payne. Camp pleaded guilty, and in extenuation said that he was drunk when the offense was committed. He was fined $30 or 30 days in jail. The following freight was shipped from the depot this morning: 1 box butter, 8 sacks onion, 6 boxes tomatoes, 3 boxes squash, 64 bales wool, 1 keg wine, 79 boxes raisins, 164 sacks corn. A DEAD BAILWAY KING. Harry Meiggs' San Francisco History as told by the Chronicle." Harry Meiggs, the repeat of whose death at Lima, Peru, is now fully confirmed, was born at Catskill, N.Y., in 1810, and was consequently 67 years old. After attaining what was considered a good common-school education in the first quarter of the present century, but which was a very attenuated one as compared with the diverse accomplishments now washed over by the pupils of public schools, he launched in a modest way in the lumbering business in the town of Williamsburg, in his native State. But, although Meiggs was not blessed with the lavish modern teaching, he was blessed with what would be forced a recompense even in these days for a more limited schooling—brains and energy. The audacity of business enterprise and calculation which at one time whirled him into the deepest vortex of financial embarrassment and miscelllement, and subsequently shot him to the very pinnacle of financiering and executive ability and success, was manifest in his initial efforts. He was elected a member of the Williamsburg Town Council, but his private business throne so under his shrewd management as soon to outgrow the capacities of an inland town, and he removed it to Brooklyn. It was still increasing when the discovery of gold was announced; an announcement which promptly hastened the boldest man physically and mentally to the far distant and almost utterly unknown shore of the Pacific. Meiggs who was among the first to foresee the magnificent possibilities, immediately disposed of his business, sailed for the NEWLY FOUND GOLD FIELDS, And arrived in San Francisco in July, 1849. The same sagacity which had made him successful at the East immediately placed him in the foremost rank of the able and daring Argonauts of 1849. He entered at once into his business of lumber dealing, establishing Training "Cognac." [From the Rural Press] Many readers who have noticed the account of the killing of a man by the Norman stallion, "Cognac," will be interested to know that this savage animal is now undergoing a scientific system of training to see whether his fierce nature can be subdued by professional methods. An attack of the President attended the beginning of the discipline, and gives us the following interesting notes. It will be noticed that the training was not complete but the following account is but descriptive of the first of a series of lessons which must be taken before "Cognac" will be entitled to his degree: "Mr. Wooden now the sole owner of Cognac," has made arrangements with Prof. Tapp who conducts a house training school on Market street near Saveth, to thoroughly educate this horse, and last Saturday the Professor in the presence of a large audience of gentlemen and a few ladies opened the new Hypo-Academique by giving publicly his first lesson to Cognac. One hundred dollars had been offered to any one who would enter the high-walled circle (42 feet in diameter) and pass around the center pole and out. There were no takers of the $100. Prof. Tapp began by making preliminary remarks, and cantoning the audience not to think of interfering by any firearms or otherwise in case the horse should by chance seize him, as skilled helpers were ready for such an emergency, and any others would only compound the difficulty. Just then 'Cognac' darted to the wall, reared and reached over, seized an individual who spoke of entering for $200 by the lappel of his coat and vest, and but for the ample assistance of four holding the man, and many beating the horse's face, he would have fully opened the performance without the true hero of the play. The sensation, the thrill of horror, and the enlarged conception of his size and power instantly amounted to a grand realization to every one present, and nearly moved them to veto Tapp's entering Justice Clark had an individual named Thomas Camp before him yesterday, charged with stealing two pairs of pants from Dan Payne. Camp pleaded guilty, and in extension said that he was drunk when the offense was committed. He was fined $30 or 30 days in jail. The following freight was shipped from the depot this morning: 1 box butter, 8 sacks onions, 6 boxes tomatoes, 3 boxes squash, 64 bales wool, 1 keg wine, 79 boxes raisins, 164 sacks corn. Anaheim Literary Society. Anaheim, Oct. 15, 1877. The members of the Anaheim Literary Society met at Scott & Montgomery's office pursuant to a call of the president, Theo Lynn, who presided. The meeting was called to order and the minutes of the previous meeting read and approved, after which the following officers were elected to serve for the ensuing term of eight weeks: President, J. M. Guinn; Vice President, W. M. McFaddlen; Secretary, Victor Montgomery; Treasurer, Fred Rimpan; Sergeant-at-Arms, Ed. F. Cahill. The Treasurer presented his report, showing a balance of $29 60 on hand. The bill of H. Kroeger, amounting to $10 for use of hall, was allowed and ordered paid. The dues of members for the months of August, September and October were remitted. The following question was chosen for discussion at the next meeting: "Resolved, That Government should indemnify individuals for damage done by mobs." Affirmative—Messrs. Cahill, Athearn and Grimshaw. Negative—Messrs. McFadden, Leonard and Beebe. Declaimers—Messrs. Rimpan and Mendelson. The Secretary was instructed to confer with Mr. Kroeger in reference to hall rent, etc. The Society then adjourned to meet in Kroeger's Hall on the evening of the 22d inst., at 7:30 o'clock. Victor Montgomery, Sec'y. Grand Lodge of Masons. The twenty-eighth annual Convocation of the Grand Lodge of Masons ended on Saturday with the installation of the following officers.

Grand Puiirsivant, W. G. Holmes. Grand Organist, Samuel D. Mayer. And arrived in San Francisco in July, 1849. The same sagacity which had made him successful at the East immediately placed him in the foremost rank of the able and daring Argonauts of 1849. He entered at once into his business of lumber dealing, establishing his yards, which subsequently became enormous, at North Beach, near the foot of Powell street. He associated with him in his business his brother, J. G. Meiggs, who is still a wealthy and extensive operator in the same business on Puget Sound. He graded a considerable part of Powell street at his own individual expense, and he built that long wharf, still in existence and one of the conspicuous harbor-marks of San Francisco, and which will long be known as "Meiggs wharf." He also built Music Hall, on part of the site of the present Occidental Hotel, and his private residence was a large frame house at the corner of Montgomery and Broadway, an imposing structure in the "early days," burned, as many of its successors were burned, in the swiftly succeeding fires that in the first decade of San Francisco frequently left the heart of the city a desert of smoldering ashes. As had been the case in Williamsburg, so in San Francisco, the citizens recognized the resistless energy and rare administrative ability of the lumber merchant, and in 1851 he was elected Assistant Alderman of the city, and subsequently Alderman, and was appointed by the Board the Chairman of the Finance Committee. But in the meantime his private business had been pushed even beyond the Demands for a Wooden City. That was burned to the ground every few months. The California Lumber Company, organized by him, and of which he was President and Manager, and which had constructed great saw-mills in Mendocino county, became embarrassed, and Meiggs, as the principal of it, became involved pastretrieving. As Chairman of the Finance Committee he had access to the City Controller's book, and his knowledge of the manner in which warrants were issued suggested to him the dubious process by which he might tide over his difficulties. He forged the names of Mayor Garrison and Controller Harris to $500,000 of these warrants so expertly that when the forgeries were discovered and the bogus warrants exhibited the two officers could hardly say at first positively that the signatures were not genuine. But even this vast sum could not save him before inevitable detection, and his only safety was in flight. He had purchased for him for $10,000 the 280-ton bark America, which was cleared generally for "ports in the Pacific." On October 7, 1854, Meiggs and his family drove from their residence, announcing that they were going to San Matee. They were driven directly to Missouri Point and put aboard the bark, which was that night towed outside the Heads. The defalcations were discovered the samedyas well as the manner of Meiggs' flight. The victims promptly secured the United States surveying steamer Active to pursue the bark. In the mean time the bark lay becalmed for 24 hours off the Heads, and the desperate operator, who knew that discovery and pursuit would be swift, sat in the elegantly-appointed cabin with a loaded revolver ready to BLOW OUT HIS BRAINS. Rather than he taken two things rendered agile not to think of interfering by any firearms or otherwise in case the horse should by chance seize him, as skilled helpers were ready for such an emergency, and any others would only compound the difficulty. Just then 'Cognac' darted to the wall, reared and reached over, seized an individual who spoke of entering for $200 by the lapel of his coat and vest, and but for the ample assistance of four holding the man, and many beating the horse's face, he would have fully opened the performance without the true hero of the play. The sensation, the thrill of horror, and the enlarged conception of his size and power instantly amounted to a grand realization to every one present, and nearly moved them to veto Tapp's entering this den of danger. But he did enter quietly and unmarred, except by a long piece of rag which he held in his hand. Cognac seemed astonished, and left his feed box, which was let down by a rope to him, and stepped to the center eyeing his new teacher who waved the rag at him. A light lash whip was then tossed to him, and he ordered Cognac to travel,and touched him gracefully with the lash,但 only on his fetlocks for reasons he was giving to us rather than to the horse. At one juncture the horse seemed to be nearly on the point of seizing him,and created a thrill of alarm.He used no drugs;his cloth was wet simply with salt brine,and when he approached him he patted him with the cloth,and by the aid of a rod rubbed his head with the rag,awhich seemed to soothe him.He used the girth,toot-lift,and cross hobble running through the gird ring,tow prevent him kicking or running.He threw him down on the soft straw bed without any violence or struggle and every step of his proceedings was careful undubtive.He made no pretence to be able to complete any,certain amount with the first lesson but all seemed to think his progress was satisfactory.Judge Green.of Alamache county,arose in the audience and stated his large experience in the last few years in having colts broken,and he could give his preference strongly in favor of Prof.Tapp's theory and practice of true horse education.All wish the Professor ample success in this effort to naturalize this worse than frog-eating foreigner.We left 'Cognac' wearing his cross hobbles but still ready to reach up over a 9-foot fence for a man. The following account of a subsequent training is taken from the Chronicle: Yesterday at 2 o'clock the exhibition commenced in the presence of about two hundred spectators,and progressed till half past 3,during which time the horse had been handled by the Professor,and even driven to buggy,and appeared perfectly tractable and to have kind of lost his appetite for stablemen.After being unhitched he was cross-hobbled by making a stout rope fast from the fetlock of his nigh fore leg to that of his off hind leg,nan arrangement which permitted him to trot,但 prevented him from galloping as also his kneeling down,and which is why Tapp still lives to again try conclusions with him.The horse stood near the center of the inclosed circle,and the Professor about midway between him and the including high barricade,the horse perfectly subdued under the eye of the commander.Some person on a seat in the rear of Tapp asked him a question,and for one instant Tapp removed his eye and half turned his head to answer.In that instant the crafty brute. SPRANG UPON HIM LIKE A TIGER. There was a yell of horror from the spectators as the horse caught them up by-the clothes at the small of his back,shook him as a terrier does a rat and flung him through air against the inclosing planking.Before Travership New Patents.

The Republic of Guatemala is the first State which has made the trade in wine and spirits a Government monopoly. From the 1st of January, 1878, private individuals are prohibited according to a decree of the Government, recently promulgated, from importing wine and spirits into that country, and from the 1st of July following the whole of the business passes into the hands of the Government. To oblige a correspondent a Mississippi journal tries its hand at definitions and this is the result: "A Radical is a Republican politician who is not ashamed of the name, and an Independent is a Republican who is ashamed of the name, and who denies being a Radical when talking to Democrats, but admits it when talking to Republicans. In other words, an Independent is a cross between a mean Democrat and a mangy Republican, who cannot be trusted by either." The Bishop of Manchester is troubled in his mind about the Colorado potato beetle. In a sermon at the re-opening of Kirkham Church he said that men and facetious newspapers—Punch, for instance—made themselves merry about the Colorado beetle. They did not seem to think that perhaps this nonsoma beast which had destroyed many a harvest field on the other side of the Atlantic might come here and destroy our own fair harvest fields. He did not think that the Colorado beetle was a thing to make jokes about. The grounds surrounding the war monument at Berlin are to be paved with stones from the several battlefields of the Prussian war. October 7, 1854, Meiggs and his family drove from their residence, announcing that they were going to San Mateo. They were driven directly to Missouri Point and put aboard the bark, which was that night towed outside the Heads. The defalcations were discovered the sameday, as well as the manner of Meiggs' flight. The victims promptly secured the United States surveying steamer Active to pursue the bark. In the mean time the bark lay becalmed for 24 hours off the Heads, and the desperate operator, who knew that discovery and pursuit would be swift, sat in the elegantly-appointed cabin with a loaded revolver ready to BLOW OUT HIS BRAINS. Rather than be taken. Two things rendered this sanguinary conclusion unnecessary. The Active's machinery broke as she was starting, and a fortuitous breeze sprang up and wafted the America and Harry Meiggs to Valparaiso. An unsuccessful effort was made for his extradition. His subsequent history in Peru as the boldest railway builder on the globe is familiar to the world, as well as the colossal fortune he amassed. He retrieved the one great error of his life as far as such retrieval was possible. As fast as he acquired wealth he punctiliously paid all his California creditors, principal and interest, and his conduct was so honorable that the California Legislature of four years ago made it the reason for the passage of an Act exempting him from criminal prosecution in the event of a then contemplated temporary return to this State. He was so consistent and generous a friend of Americans and especially of Californians in Peru that in the heyday of his prosperity Peru was the Mecca to which the unfortunate in finances or otherwise wended their way. The Peruvian flag was hoisted yesterday at half noat at the Consulate-General's office in sorrow for the death of Harry Meiggs and in respect for his memory. The Consulate-General, La Fuente, thinks that the great majority of the Peruvian people will deeply lament the death of Mr. Meiggs, who had always in mind the good of Peru and who was never approached without being loved.

The grounds surrounding the war monument at Berlin are to be paved with stones from the several battlefields of the Prussian war. October 7, 1854, Meiggs and his family drove from their residence, announcing that they were going to San Mateo. They were driven directly to Missouri Point and put aboard the bark, which was that night towed outside the Heads. The defalcations were discovered the sameday, as well as the manner of Meiggs' flight. The victims promptly secured the United States surveying steamer Active to pursue the bark. In the mean time the bark lay becalmed for 24 hours off the Heads, and the desperate operator, who knew that discovery and pursuit would be swift, sat in the elegantly-appointed cabin with a loaded revolver ready to BLOW OUT HIS BRAINS. Rather than be taken. Two things rendered this sanguinary conclusion unnecessary. The Active's machinery broke as she was starting, and a fortuitous breeze sprang up and wafted the America and Harry Meiggs to Valparaiso. An unsuccessful effort was made for his extradition. His subsequent history in Peru as the boldest railway builder on the globe is familiar to the world, as well as the colossal fortune he amassed. He retrieved the one great error of his life as far as such retrieval was possible. As fast as he acquired wealth he punctiliously paid all his California creditors, principal and interest, and his conduct was so honorable that the California Legislature of four years ago made it the reason for the passage of an Act exempting him from criminal prosecution in the event of a then contemplated temporary return to this State. He was so consistent and generous a friend of Americans and especially of Californians in Peru that in the heyday of his prosperity Peru wasthe Mecca to whichthe unfortunate in finances or otherwise wended their way.

R. 20, 1877. BY TELEGRAPH. Another Bank Suspension. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 16. The suspension of the Market Street Savings Bank is announced, owing to the withdrawal of accounts during the past week. The officers state that the assets of the bank are sufficient to settle all claims of depositors, which they propose to pay in two installments at five and eight months' time. The amount due is about $30,000. Political Gossip. CHICAGO, Oct. 16. The Trilman's Washington special says: Whatever other Republicans may think, it is evident that the President's Civil Service views do not meet the approval of a very considerable number of Republican Congressmen at either end of the Capitol. No manifestations are made of a desire to embarrass the President or antagonize his views, but there are very strong desires expressed for a radical change of Cabinet and a modification of some of the President's positions. The Times's Washington special yesterday said: This was the dullest day ever known in the opening of a new session. The Democrats were always conciliatory. There were no passages at arms, both sides voting in politeness. Clerk Adams received universal approval for the impartiality and firmness of his rulings and decision. Randall was much excited, and during the administering of his oath as Speaker, his uplifted hand trembled like an aspen. His nervousness is unexplainable. There never was so tremendous a job on this morning on the street with a stink, inflicting serious wounds upon his head. Delano was conveyed to the midside of his arm-in-law, Anselm Wright. Wright was indicted during Delano's administration of the Interior Department for forgery in connection with the payment of money to the Indians, whereby he became rich, but escaped conviction on account of the St. Louis Court deciding that it had no jurisdiction. Wright was greatly excited and struck Delano with a heavy cane from behind. He had threatened to attack Delano at every opportunity. There was no arrest. The officials of the Eisenhower Bank have completed the examination of depositors' accounts. They found the total liability to that class of creditors $1,235,401,355 divided among 2,400 depositors. The further investigation is carried in to the affairs of the concern; the smaller appear the prospects of the creditors, and it now looks as though not a dollar would be found for depositors. From what can be judged by such information as they have in their possession, the bank officers are disposed to believe that Duncan did not carry away with him more than $10,000; the balance of the funds having been staked in efforts to float the bank. The Chicago Journal's Washington special says: At the Democratic caucus she made universally condemned, as in extremely bad taste, leading Democrats to assert that Hayes' election would be called into question by the House.

Jose Antonio Echeveria, diplomatic Commissioner at New York of the Cuban Republic, publishes an emphatic denial of the reports, industriously circulated by Spanish agents, that a compromise will be entered into with Spain by the Cuban patriots. Stories of this kind have been ahead for years, invariably emanating from Spanish sources, shortly before the meeting of Congress. He says some know better than the Spanish authorities in Cuba that peace can never again rule in the island until independence is secured. WASHINGTON, October 15.—Strong indications are becoming visible that last year's combination between the Southern Pacific and the Texas-Pacific Companies has been ruptured and that the so-called compromise will be henceforth abandoned. Scott's friends express distrust of the Huntington party and are inclined to think that, even if their suspicions are ill-founded, the coalition deprives the bill of its argument against monopoly and loses more votes than it gains. The California corporation, on the other hand, appears to have little faith in the success of any subsidy project this year and seem more than ever confident of its ability to build the whole road without outside assistance. War to the knife will therefore probably be the programme of both companies during the present Congress. Meanwhile, the advocates of the Texas-Pacific profess a serious confidence in the result, and utterly deny the truth of the report that Scott has taken a house here to conduct lobby operations. They assert that their project will achieve success by its own strength and inherent merits. They are greatly pleased with Randall's victory, but say they expect nothing from him except a fair Committee. They are also very confident of receiving some kind of support from President Hayes, although this expectation cannot be traced to any public utterances of the President or of his Cabinet, and may, perhaps, prove to be an entire mistake. NEWS IN BRIEF. The Montreal Witness says that a physician in that city is restoring the facilities of an idiot child by lifting depressed portions of its skull. A friend, who is staying at Rome tells the editor of London Truth that it was deemed very difficult to break to the Pope the news of the death of Thiers; it was feared least the denise of the veteran statesman might prove a shock to his Holiness. Cardinal Semoni, however, undertook the task when the Holy Father simply said: "A good ridance." A native Indian paper, the Sulabha Samachar, is eloquent in its demunciations of flesh-caters and wine-bibbers. English food, it says, produces unusual heat. It has proved particularly injurious to the Bengalese, according to this authority, insamuch as it tends to induce hypocrisy, aggravate gluttony and finally to cause premature death. To suppose that it imparts physical strength or inspires the heart with valor is altogether a mistake. Samuel Stickney, of Waterloo, Iowa, hugged a girl so hard that a revolver in his pocket was discharged, seriously wounding a boy who was passing the gate where the pair President MacMahon before the intelligent French voter. The information is to the effect that MacMahon is known and esteemed throughout the world. The Irish are proud to think that he belongs to their race, and in Ireland he is very popular and greatly honored. It is the same in California, where a great part of the population is Irish. The Marshal's name is in every month, his portrait in every house. In the towns and villages of California the most frequent sign on the public houses is the portrait of the great MacMahon. CONDENSED TELEGRAMS. In speaking of the present session of Congress, a Washington telegram says: Atkins, of Tennessee, is prepared with a project for reducing the army permanently to 17,000 men. If so, it will be postponed till after the December meeting. But many Democrats are outspoken against such scheme, and indicate a disposition rather to support the proposition of Secretary McCrary, at the regular session, for filling up existing regiments to their maximum, whenever in the judgment of the Executive it is necessary. As this question, by reason of the removal of the troops from the South, has lost its political bearing, it will hardly be possible to unite the Democrat against the maintenance of a regular force adequate to the necessities of suppressing domestic violence. The whereabouts of the defunct Tweed ring is given in the following dispatch: Peter B. Sweeney, since settling with the city, is said to be quietly maturing plans looking to the ultimate recapture of Tamany, of which, in olden times, he was the ablest manipulator. He is still very rich. Slippery Dick Connelly, also of the Tweed ring, is still at Vevay, Switzerland, living in luxury, but threatened with softening of the brain and wants to return home. His son-in-law, Hutchings, is still here trying to negotiate a compromise with the city that shall make his return safe. Oakley Hall is in London yet, veiled in mystery and fog. Woodward is in daily consultation with the city's counsel classifying certain cheeks, of which he has several, showing the Ring's dividends, which are intended to be used as evidence to recover money from parties who have hitherto escaped prosecution. Most of the remainder of the sharers in the plunder are in reduced circumstances, some of them very poor. Barnard, the ring Judge, having been disbarred and engaged in the tobacco business here, is completely broken down, shamed by his former associates, and addicted to drink. Judge Cardone, who assigned to escape imprisonment, has resumed law practice, but seldom appears in Court. Keyser, the ring plumber, recently passeth through bankruptcy. WASHINGTON, October 12th—Ex-Judge Wright of Indiana admitted Columbus Delaware. A native Indian paper, the Sulabha Samachar, is eloquent in its damnations of flesh-eaters and wine-bibbers.

It has proved particularly injurious to the Bengalese, according to this authority, insinuas al if tends to induce hypocrisy, aggravate gluttony and finally to cause premature death. To suppose that it imparts physical strength or inspires the heart with valor is altogether a mistake. Samuel Stickney, of Waterloo, Iowa, hugged a girl so hard that a revolver in his pocket was discharged, seriously wounding a boy who was passing the gate where the pair stood. The political statement of Thiers commences thus: "Faith if an immense and comprehensible God has not left me for an instant of my life, and I wish it" to be my first thought now that I turn my mind toward my end. I have always denied a personal God, a revenge endowed with all the vain splendors, and subject to the miserable passions of humanity. But I presume myself confused by my littleness, before the immense uncreated cause of the Comes, and I confide in that provident and immutable justice which I see diffused and dominant through the whole creation." Mr. Stanton, now under sentence of death for complicity in the Penge murder in England, gave birth to twins while in Newgate. Forty persons who had drank milk that had stood for some time in pencil lined jars in Camden, Mr., were seriously but fatally poisoned last week. Garibaldi has written a letter to prove that the brigands of his native land could be put down if the Government would give them bread and good treatment instead of lashes and torture. Several cities in Georgia are fighting the Central Railroad on account of its extortionism. At Jonesboro cotton is being handed to Atlanta twenty miles in wagons, and goods are taken back in the same vehicles. The railroad has thus been forced to come down, but the wagon train still receives the greater part of freight. The vinyards near Bedminster, France, yield a million of hogheads of wine annually of which one hundred thousand are converted into brandy. The annual report of the Texas and Pacific Railroad just made to the stockholders shows that 110 miles of road have been completed during the past year; making 480 miles in all, and that the line earned a considerable sum over running expenses. The daily newspapers in Durham are not much larger than a sheet of fanning paper, and are delivered for $10 or year. Every subscriber is required; an announcement in the prospectus; to "down with the dust."
