EXCITING WOLF HUNT.
An Eaillih Member of Parliament In a
Tight riace.
From the Omaha Daily Jferald, August 4.
Thomas Cave, Esq , M. P., whose arrival in
this city we recently noticed, passed on the next
day la a Bpeclal train with Dr. Durant for trie
pur none or limpeodoic the work, and the extra
ordinarily rapid and complete track-laying of
this eighth wonder of the world the 1'aciflo
Kailroad. This railway, as moat of our readers
well Know, Is to complete the railroad connec
tion between the seaboard ot the Atlantic and
1'aciflo Oceans. Owing to the liberal subsidies
granted by the United Htiites Government, and
the energy of the contractors and Dr. Dura nt,
the road Is being completed at the unprece
dented rate of one and a half to Ave miles per
day, Mr. Uave, English member of Parlia
ment, represents large Interests In the At
lantlo and Great Western Hallway Company
In our country. Ue has been engaged for
several weeks In Investigating the past and
present hiistory of that company, and personally
visited and Inspected the whole of that road.
He states that his main object in visiting the
Union l'aclllc Railroad at tuls time, is In order
to enable him to make a comparison between
this road and the Atlantio and Great Western
Kailroad. The wisdom 01 this will appear when
It Is remembered that the Union I'aclflo Hall
road is to be built as one of the first class of
American railways, and under the immediate
certificate of commissioners appointed by the
Government, who are required to Inspect and
report upon every mile of this road. We learn
from an entirely reliable source the details of
an Incident of Mr. Cave's visit to the end of the
road, which might have had a more serious
termination, and the result of which is a source
of gratification to the friends of that gentleman.
It appears that on Thursday evening the
special train containing the excursionists
slopped for the night in the vicinity of Jules
buig, which has sprung up as if by magic
within the last month, and which is located
about 160 miles east of the base of the ltacky
Mountains. Colonel Carllng, of the Regular
Army, has a large and tine campunder his com
mand near that city, preparing lor the construc
tion of a fort to accommodate 1100 men, near
the base of the mountains. Colonel Carllng
extended the hospitalities of bis camp to the
Hon. Mr. Cave, and invited him to hunt an
antelope at 5 o'clock the next morning. True
to the sportsman-like Instincts of a British
gentleman, Mr. Cave cordially accepted this
opportunity for sport, although he had been
informed that hostile bands ol Sioux Iudtans
Infested the vicinity, and were constantly com
mitting depredations. The hunting party
consisted of Colonel Carllng, Mr. Cave,
the Colonel's orderly, and two scouts
of experience, to be Used as well lor
heading the game as to look out for Indians,
At starting, a northeasterly direction was
taken over the prairie, one scout moving a ut
a mile distant on either flank, with orders to
ride to the centre in case of alarm. Antelope
were soon sighted In large numbers and ex
citing sport obtained. About 8 A. M., and Im
mediately after an exciting chase, the orderly
having Mr. Cave's rifle to reload, two fine
wolves were sighted at about one-rourtb of a
mile distant. The Englishman, being anxious
to obtain a nearec view, suggested a chase.
Colonel Carllng. assured him that it would be
impossible to come up with them, but ex
pressed his willingness to. allow Mr. Cave to
try the experiment. Without walling for his
rifle, Mr. Cave rose in his stirrups and put his
horse to the top of bis speed in pursuit, begging
l lie urueny to loiiow wim ma piece. A.iter a
tremendous run of about two miles, Mr. Cave
was alongside the nearest wolf, but on look
ing around found the orderly had not come
up. He accordingly rode at the near side of the
with a view of turning him wlthlu the range of
Colonel Carling's rifle. About fifteen minute
of skilful management bad brought the wolf
within about 100 yards, when he drew back to
allow the Colonel to fire, and he shouted to the
orderly for his weapon, l tie ungiisnman, in
tent unon the exciting chase, had noticed
neither the shouts nor signs from Colonel Car
ling, that a parly ot hostile Indians were ap
proaching, tie now, However, saw at a gianee
his danger, and the critical situation of affairs;
and although, ine won was completely ex
hausted and would have been captured an easy
prey, be thrust spurs to his horse, and rode for
the orderly for his weapons, being wholly un
armed. Colonel Carllng bad for some
time observed the approach of the band
Lot Indians, well mounted, and dressed in
Simple uiail&tns ttuu icggiaga, ua uuBwuinijr
In their tribe, and saw that they were
evidently manoeuvring to cut Jiff Mr. Cave
from bis party. Beelng that their preserve
was unknown to the Englishman, regardless
of the danger. Colonel Carllng resolved not to
leave him to bis impending fate, but gallantly,
and at Imminent risk to himself, followed Mr.
Cave, thus preventing a recurrence of a similar
tragedy to tbose which we have recently been
called upon to reoord. At this Juncture the
night scout had discovered another party of In
dians similarly mounted, approaching from
an opposite direction, while the Boout from the
left came la with report that he had struck
fresh Indian trails on the extreme left. Thus
reinforced, the party drew rein for a
short council of war, and dismounting
as agreed, showed face to the foe and deter
mined to make fight. This demonstration
was effective. The wily Indian never
makes a fair stand-up tight if there is a
formidable opposition, and they well knew the
power of the Henry rifle in suoti hands as these.
In the sad tragedies of Mr. Hill, and of Mr.
Brown, and other sad occurrences of recent
date, the Indians have watched until they
found a man separated, from his comrades, and
then unexpectedly swooped down upon and out
htm down. We are glad we have no such termi
,M.)on to record of the case In point. Mr. Cave
islo.'d in his praises of the coolness and gal
lantry "f Colonel Carllng, whom he pronounces
as his 10vl of a gentleman and a soldier: to
whom, atte. ineir return irom tne nunt, ne
made cordial acknowledgment, as well as to his
orderly for their prompt rescue, and resumed
nis journey, we g.-e tuis illustration 01 tne
danger of sporting t t the prairies until the
troops have cleared them from hostile Indians,
at least without an ample escort.
NICARAGUA.

From El Porvenir, Rtvas, N., July 15.
Ex-President Martinez, new Minister to Eng
land, left by last steamer for England to ar
range the final delivery to Nicaragua of the
Mosquito territory. This done, the develop,

will vastly contribute to the resources of the

who has been anie to sustain uiuisen iu t

Marie Sophie Amelle, ex-Q,ueen of Naples.
Despatches have been received at .London,
from Home we presume, whlcn announce the
death of this lady, the wife of Marie Leopold
V rands, surnamed "Little llorabii," ex-King of
Naples. The deceased was the third daughter
and flrth child of Maximilian Joseph. Duke of
llavarla, and was born at Possenhofen on the
4ih of October, 1841. Her early years were
barren of hl-lorio Incident, her education and
those of her Bisters being obtained Irom the
Erlvate tutors of her father. In 1864, her sloter
)llzabelh Amelle Eugenie was married
to Francis Joseph, the present Em
peror of Austria, and four years suose
quently another sister, the Princess Caroline
Therese llelene, was united to Maximilian,
Prince of Thurn and Taxis. On the 8lu of Jana
ary, 1859, the deceased ex Queen was married
by proxy, and on the 3d of February following,
in person, to the then Prince Royal of Naples.
On the 22d of May of the same year she ascended
the throne with her husband, and during the
brief and shameful reltiuof Francis proved her
self adevoted and affectionate wife. She accom
panied the King in bis flight from Naples to
Gaeta, and during the short but memorable
siege of the last-named city, endeared herself to
the Neapolitan soldiers who composed the
garrison by her course of conduct. Upon the
lull of Gaeta, February 14, ltitil, and the retire
ment of the ex-King to ihe Palace of the Q,ul
rlnal, at Rome, she accompanied him, and re
sided there ever afterwards, sharing the many
vicissitudes of fortune which have since at
lenoed her royal-spouse.
Mrs. Abby Folsom.
By a telegram from Concord, New Hamp
shire, we are informed of the death of Mrs.
Abby Folsom, at her residence in R (Chester,
in the same Htate, on the 8th instant. The de
censed was, we believe, a native of England,
her maiden name being Kelley. Between the
years l&iO and 1833 she emigrated to this
country, and took up her residence at Boston.
There she soon became famous for her denun
ciation of slavery. With a coterie of kindred
spirits she mounted the roBirum, and de
nounced the late "peculiar institution of the
Houtb," declaring that the negro was, In
every respect, the equal of the white man,
and even ROlng so far as to declare in
favor ol amalgamation between the races. At
the time when these doctrines were expounded
the "moral ideas" of the country had not yet
reached their full height, and even In pious
Boston the preacherof anti-slavery dogmas was
subject to such lnterrup'lons as could be caused
by uootlngs, grimnlngs, hissings, rotten eggs,
and other and more forcible expressions of uis
seut. Notwithstanding these uufavorable
aspects, the deceased ludy persevered in her
tflorts, and was ever foremost in attending all
of the auti-slavery meetings held iu New Eng
land and New York. Her associates in this
work were all the great abolition lights. Asa
speaker, Mis. Folsom was bold, V gorous, and
fearless. Bbe never hesitated to express her
opinion in the midst of the most overwhelming
atTtogonlt.m,and on more than one occasion
gained her point by sheer personal courage and
determination. In fact, she was a perfect Wen
dell Phillips In petticoats. The natural ability
displayed by the deceased gained for her nu
merous admirers and friends, while her cour
age made even her opponents In poiltlcal ques
tions respect her. She was to the public at one
time what Anna Dickinson and Mrs. Lucy
Stone are at tbe present hour. The deceased
was married quite a number of years to Mr.
Folsom, a scholar and philanthropist, of New
Hampshire. Soon after this event she retired
to private life, from which she seldom ever
afterwards emerged. Her life before her marri
age, taken altogether, was a most extraordinary
and successful one. She lived to see her dearly
cherished anti-slavery doctrines engrafted upon
the Constitution of the country, and in the cer
tainty of this knowledge died, no donbt, per
fectly contented and happy.
THE NEW CRISIS.
Ex-Senator Harris, of New York, on the
Present Condition of tne Country.
From the New York Herald.
New York, August 8. I thank you for your
manly announcement in this rooming's ferrid,
in the article headed "The New Crisis." Your
views in that article are so wholesome that I
cannot leave the city this morning, ba fig tran
siently here, without expressing jry" gratitude.
I assure you, Bir, that ho present attempt of
party leaders . w secure political power by
roaVis ine Southern States negro States is
most alarming, and the people of the North must
not allow its success, if they value their own
freedom and prosperity. If people stop to think,
they will spurs such an attempt with indigna
tion; nothing but false issues can possibly allow
such a ruinous project to succeed. To cheat the
people, the advocates of this nefarious scheme
will keep before them the Idea of martyrdom
and all that sort of thing; but the true issue
should be ever present to our minds, and mar
tyrs rewarded at a less expense than tbe over
throw of our Institutions. Now, sir, I have
done my bumble part in tbe late war for the
Union. Two of my sons have fallen under the
Union flag, and my part has been In contribu
tions, and not in the reception of a penny's pro
fit during tbe strife. But never have I wished
anything but a restored Union. For this, and
this alone, I have sacriticed, and not for
the elevation of the negeo nor the dis
franchisement of the people of the South
ern States. If the people of tbe South
are not to be restored to ibe Union, then ttie
old Copperhead cry that the Union could not be
restored bv arms is verified. The Idea that the
South must be Africanized before Its States are
allowed to return is an admission that the war
has been a wicked failure, and has been waited
for tbe destruction of the Republic. It is not a
debatable question. We did not send our sons
to cue ior tne erection oi negro otai.es iu me
South. I appeal to the creat masses In tbe
North, who generously poured out their blood
and treasure in the conflict, if this was their
obieel? Mr. Editor, vou have hit a tender chord
in vour remarks this mornlnir. and will. I
know, awaken the sleeping sense or tne people
on this crisis. I have purchased a plantation
in Alabama, and contemplate removal there,
and am encouraging others In the North to fol

many orders were therelore left over unat

ernment securities, both on speculative and In

the 186s of May and November, and 108J for

There was a slight falling off in City secu
rities, the late advance offering too stronir an
inducement to sell for ordinary holders to with
stand. The new were freely selling at 1011: the
old, however, wcte strong at 9B. .
Railroad and other bonds were unchanged.
