J. S. BOHD W ELL, Er.dito SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 12 1870. A Woman Rebklmon in Maine. A singular and unfortunate scene recently oo curred at the fate House in Augusta, Mo. Mrs. Thurston, of Portland, had caused a notice of a aale ol the State of Maine, its lights, appurtenances, &c, to be posted up on the doors of the Stite Ilonse, and a lit tie before 10 o'clock aho ascended the Speaker's rostrum and proceeded to sell the State to satisfy hor unliquidated claim. Several bids were made by the Senators and Representatives at fabulous sums, but finally the lady struck it off to, herself, ami took her seat in the Speaker's chair. As far as this went, all was well ; but the time for the opening of the sessiou had now ar rived, and Mrs. T. was politely requested to come down from her position, but she do. clined to do so, saving that she had bought in the Stato and must stay and keep her position. Upm the Clerk ordering the aics-'ieugers to remove her vi it arm is, a seeue ef great confusion ensued. She ut terly refused to be ejected by force, The r-jombers begaD to beg Mrs. T. to go out quietly, but she was deaf to their entreaties ; piie resisted fiicreely, but was Gnally per suaded to retire, and was last seen in the State Library, looking up legal authorities to sustain her claim. The Arym says the affair was universally regretted by all as a very unfortunate cirounistrncc, because the subject of it was a woman, and one who is deemed to be demented upon one subjeet, although perfectly sane upon all other ques tions. As A German was repairing a elock in Baltimore, a few days ago, the house took fire, and it was found n3ccs3ary to rem vo the furuitturo The German, however, clung to the table on which tvas lyiug ihc time piece, and even whoh it became ucccs Eary to run the hose through the room, and the greatest confusion possible was created coutinued working at the clock. The firo overhead progressed, and the room became fillet with smoke, while hundreds of jets of cold water dropped around him. Nothing however, could deter him from finishing his job, and finish it ho did, when, placing the the clock uuder his arm ho descened the stairs and searched among the crowd for the owner. He was found, and the pe.'scvcr iog mechanic, being hauded lis fee, was asked why be pcrshted in reniaiuiug. II is reply was that he had promised to be at a certain place to transact business at three o'clock, and, said he, "I always keep my word." , The Sao Francisco police aie raibing on Chinese gambling bouses, with small result The door-keeper at these dens has his hands always on a string, which, when pulled, sounds a gong beneath the gambling table, and enables all hands to clear up and make their escape in case any unwelcome visitors come. So well have they operated that one keeper ol such an establishment has pro cured the puncshmentby fine of an officer who entered his saloon. AmTERRIBLL STORM. Willmington, N. C, Feb. 5. Last night there was one of the most terrible elevens ever experienced here. Thus far four marine disasters are reported a occur ring yesterday. The seboooer Eleanor T., from Baltimore, went ashore near Fort Fisher, and immeciately broke up. Five men, supposed to be her entire crew, were drowned, as they were seen clinging to por tions of the wreck, but iu a few moments all wero washed off. Tho schooner Samuel C. Edorn, schooner Racer, and schooner Ray were also wrecked. GOLD EXCITMEXT IN ILLINOIS Tebre Haute. Feb. 4. Tho most in tense excitement prevails in Clark county, Illinois, in consequence of the discovery of gold in Big Cr.eck, about twenty miles from this city. A lately-returned California miner -a miner of eighteen years' experience has been for some days prospecting in the ravenes along the creek, and in every hand, inl of eatth he has found gold in paying quantities. The people of that section are wild with the gold mania, and are leaving all other business to search for the precious metal. Littb Vallit, N. V. Feby. 6. Theodore Nicolos was on Friday convicted in the Catta raugus oourt of Oyer and Terminer, of the murder of Dr. Andrew Mead, in Allegany, on the lSlh December last. He was sentenced yssterqay morning to be hanged on the 18th March. This is the second conyiotion for mur der during this term of court. Much excitement prevailed during the trial of Nicholas, as the murder of Dr. Mead was the most brutal ever committed in western New York. Nicbolss and Burdick, tae latter of whom was nonvioted last week of the murder of H H. Barker, colored, in Olean last September, have made full confession of their crimes, but each claims his act to be justifiable homicide. Both murderers are sentenced te be hanged on the same diy.
