The Davenport (Iowa) Gazette, of July 28, says
A brave German lady in ibis city gar a bur
glar, who w prowling about her premises be
iwscn 1 and 3 o'clock, yesterday morning, a
taste of lad boi from revolver, and Injured
him badly, if, Indeed, she did not mortally
wound kin. . .
Tbe lady alluded to Is Mrs. H. Bestorlff, who
resides on Harrison street, between Seventh
aid Klghtn. lbs slrcumsiances were as fol
lows: , .
Mr. Res tor Iff carries on a cooperage business.
On batarday be received $200 from parties who
were owing him, and in too svening be started
for Chicago, bis wife aooompanyiog him to tbe
depot. During her absence ber oulldren, two
boys aDd two girls, went to a neighbor's. On
ner rstnra sbe iound plenty of evidence that
somebody had been in her bouse, rummaging
the drawers and displacing tblngs generally,
On Bunday sue borrowed a revolver or a
friend, determined to give the prowling gentry
tb benefits of lis contents, should they disturb
her sgaln. There was no sleep for her Sunday
nlttht. After tbe elock had struct one, her
wakefulness was rewarded by hearing tbe
south- of attempts to open a wlndowagaln. Willi
Arm nerves and brave determination, she re
aolved upon shooting tbe burglar, and laid a
nice plan to carry ner resolution into effect.
Hhe aroused one of ber daughters, a miss in her
teens, and told her to go down to the front door
and fumble with the knob and key, as if sbe
were trying to open lt.ibe noise belug designed
to attract the burglar' attention. Tlie child did
so, with what feeling of dread no one eau de
scribe. Tbe mother then went to a raised
window, noiselessly rolled up tbe curtain, and
With revolver In hand, looked out. Tuere, right
ntidar the window, sbe saw tbe crouoblng form
Of a roan, lie had a revolver la one hand,
which seemed to be pointed towards the door
where the child was. Mrs. U. took: a deliberate
aim at him and fired. The man rollel over like
a log, and seemed motionless for a minute. Tho
woman, overcome with the reaction that en
Bued, almost swooned away. Hhe went to tbe
Blalrwaj and called her daughter back. Then
She peered out of the window, but the burglar
was goue. bbe closed tbe window, and did not
dare to go near it or to leave tier room again.
In tbe morning, after hours of darkness and
-wretched anxiety, she went out to where tbe
burglar was stooping, when she shot him. A
couple of pieces of board Were there, with large
clots of blood upon them. The soil ab Hit the
place for some distance was covered with loose
sand, upon which no blood could be seen. The
bloou upon tbe board is all that can be found,
but It is proof enough that the burglar was
wounded in some part of his body, aud man
aged to prevent the blood from betraying his
line of retreat.
VALLANpiGWAM.
Wnat Ha Vhlski of Gsmaral Grant aad
tbe Hspnbllca Party.
The Democrats of the city of Dayton, Ohio,
mustered in full force on tue evening of the
2Klh nit., in liecket Hall, the occasion being the
presence of tbe Hon.O. li. Vallandigham, who
spoke npon the political Issues of the day. iu
the coarse of his speech be said:
I have no word of personal denunciation for
the Republican candidates. I would not de
tract oue jot or tittle from the fullest measure
of military glory to which General Grant miy
be Justly entitled. I have not a syllable to
otter as to bis personal habits. I care not what
bis name is or may have been by baptism or
nsage. I know Ulysses S. Grant only as the
candidate of the revolutionary Republican
party, and as the representative of its princi
ples. Us policies, and Us purposes. We are not
choosing the ring master of a circus, nor the
xnaglster of a feast, nor the keeper of the royal
homes or hounds, nor even the Commanding
General of our armies to wage war;
but tbe Chief Executive officer of a
great Republic, to restore peace and prosperity
through the arts of statesmanship; and I know
Ulysses S. Grant only as the symbol of negro
supremacy, debt, hard times, high prices, low
wage?, gold without taxation for the bond
bolder, rugs and taxes for the people, and an
Imperial military despotism, instead or the
simple but benellcent Federal Republic or our
lathers. Beyond these General Grant repre
sents nothing except the cold lava of the burnt,
out volcano of civil war. Yon hear from
every quarter, through tbe Republican prens,
tbe alarm that It is the purpose of the
Democratic party to Inaugurate revolution
and civil war. Let no man be In the least
concerned. Unquestionably, It is the fixed pur
pose of 3,000,00" of Democratic voters, with all
the intensity which can fire the hearts of men
born freemen and tcorulng to die slaves, if we
shall fairly, constitutionally and legally eleot a
President, to see that he is Inaugurated at every
hazard. It is onr right, and our duty, too; as
also It is the amy and right of tbe Republican
party, if they shall legally, constitutionally,
and fairly elect General Grant. But no man
meditates ot enly or covertly, anything beyond.
No, gentlemen, it is tbe Republican leaders who
are tbe revolutionists. It 1st hey who resolved by
all means and at every sacrifice of .the rights of
the (States, tbe lbeities or the people, and the
peace of the country, to perpetuate their power
would again plunge us into both civil and
social war wltb all its horrors. Hut to the bal
lot and not to tbe bullet, we now appeal. The
people are wearied of tho Republican party,
and of its wrongs and Its perfidies, or its debts
and its tar 1 flu and its taxations, or Its negro
governments and Us military despotisms, of a
dishonored Constitution and a broken Union,
Which four years of war and three years of
peace under its condnct and legislation have
failed to restore; and they demand and will
bave a change.
TItal Statistics of tlio British 5avy.
The statistical report of the health of the Bri
tish Navy )ust Issued gives a very favorable
View of the sanitary condition or the force
afloat in 18B5. The total force was 52,210 men;
the eases on tbe sick list numbered 6i).3l5, which
is In the proportion of 1363 per 1000 of mean
force, being slightly below tbe ratio of tbe pre
vious year. The total number invalided was
101, or 32 9 per 1000, a reduotlon as comparad
with the previous year of 2 5 per 1000.
1 those Invalided 181 were for wound
and Injuries. There were 680 deaths,
JO belnr tlio result or disease, and 101 of
wounds, "injuries, and drowning. The total
death rata was 11'3 per 1000 of mean fsree, which
Is a reduction, as compared with the preceding
year, of 2 7 per 1000. The mortality from disease
alone was 8 1 per 1000. The lowest sick rate was
on the Mediterranean station, 33 4, and the
blsbeBton the China station. 80 4. On the west
coast of Africa yellow fever was epidemio, aud
In China small-pox prevailed In the squ .dron
at Japan. At tbe lornier station fever increased
the mortality to the extent of 28 4 per 1000.
Cholera appeared in the Mediterranean, and
occasioned great mortality among the elvil and
military population of Malta.
The loss annually suslalued by the navy from
Smallpox has caused Dr. Mackay to suggest tbe
propriety of considering whether it may not be
advisable to introduce a system of periodical re
Vaccination loto the service. Tbe death-rate on
the home station from disease was 5 8 per 1000,
and from violence 1-3; on the Mediterranean
Station, lrom disease 6'2. from violence 2; North
America and the West Indies, from disease 77,

Espartero, tbe Dak of Vltterla, Again
la Power.
The cable this morning announces that Es
partero. tbe dlBtlngulshedllberal statesman, bas
been summoned to form a new Cabinet, and
bas gene to Madrid for that purpose.
Ills now eleven years since JOaqnln Baldo
mero Espartero, Duke of Vlttorla, retired from
publlo life, In consequence of one of those
changes which have been i-o common in Spain
during this century. All believed then that he
tend retired finally from the arena of politics,
but as will be seen he has again been called on
to preserve a tottering throne, which he more
than any other has helped to erect, and has
before now preserved by the firmness of
his policy. Born early iu 1702, his career
has been that of a soldier of fortune as
adventurous and as varied as that of Napoleon
III. In early lire, of a aeltcate phvsiiue, unable
to follow the trade of his fathor, a carpenter in
the village of Graualula, tbe future general and
Ufgentof Spain was educated at Almagro for
tbe church. In 1808, yielding to an inclination
of patriotism and a desire for a life of adventure
heeullBtedas a private in one of the guerilla
regiments raised to fight the French. After
wards he bad the advautage of education la a
military school, from which at the age of
tweutj -three he reoelved tbe commission or
sub-lieutenant, bllll fond of adventure he
Joined Morlllo in his (South Amerloan cam
paign. Having served with much success he
was sent back to Bpiiln in 1821 on a secnl-dl-
Elomatic mission. Returning to South America
e found Bolivar triumphant, and a prison
awaiting him. Thence he escaped to Madrid,
where, with a fortune of JtSOOO acquired by gam
bling, he found little dWllculty iu gaining too
hand of an accomplished, beautiful, aud
wealthy woman. The death of Ferdinand, in
lKI.'i, involving ilia question of succession to tho
throne, produced universal contusion. Don
Carlos claimed the crown under the Suite law.
Maria Christina maintained the right, of her
daughter Isabella. To the latter party Espnrtero
lent the powerful assistance of his sword and
iron will, lie strongly advocated the regency
ol tbeUueen mother. In the desperate struggle
that ensued between tlielarllsts and Chrlstinos
beheld distinguished positions with varying
success. Eventually buying defeated the gal
lant Zumallacarregnl and the ablest Carl 1st lieu
tenants, he restored Isabella to her throne In
1840. Don Carlos In the meantime reMrinu to
France. Internecine war had ceased, but peace
was not restored Political divisions Btlli pre
vailed, and in subserving these to his purpose,
Espartero showed the same indomitable cour
age and wonderful power which he exercised in
tbe field. In October, 1840, the Queen mother
resigning ber regency, its duties were assumed
by Espartero. Insurrections under O'Donnell
and other chiefs were temporarily suppressed,
but in 1813 the majority of Isabella having been
declared by the Junta of Barcelona he was de
posed. He fled to England, leaving an open
field to his successful rival, Narvaez.
There he resided until created a Spanish
Senator and recalled iu 1817. Politically he
was inert until 1851. when on the retirement of
Christina and Narvae. from the country he
again was placed In charse of the Hnoreme
Council. To strengthen his government he
called to a participation in Its cares his old
protege and subsequent rival Marshal O'Don
nel, but was unsuccessful in preserving bis
power. After a short-lived and unsuccessful
tenure, be retired into private life, resigning
his Henatorshlp In 1857. Whether at the aire of
seventy-six tbe skill and strength which un
doubtedly were his characteristics, stll I remain
to carry him through the stormy career on
which he has again entered, the coming six
months will amply show.

"" oi v vo'wn onimioB. up i tie return or the

auout 4 o ciocn a. m., ana trie nignt's carousing
wound up by the drowning of a young girl
named Flora Read, late of the Academy of
Music, where she was known on the programme
as Millie Flora, Recently Bhe took np her abode
at the bouse of Jennie Laws, at which place she
held forth up to the fatal occurrence.
From the evidence elicited before the Coro
ner's Jnry, It appears that Flora had been
drinking to excets during the night, and was
intoxicated. As the boat was nearlng the
wharf, having a covered barge in tow for
dancing, sbe attempted to Jump from it to the
boat, and fell between the two. sinking to rise
no more. She was following some man, abat
ing him, and she was launched into eternity
with a dreadful oath escaping her lips. She
was small In stature, and about eighteen years
old. She had led a very dissipated life for
several years past, aud had fallen to the very
lowest depths of depravity and vice. The river
at the foot of Clay street was dragged, and the
body was recovered. It is due to tho keeper of
the house at which she was boarding Jennie
Laws to state that the remains of tbe unfortu
nate were taken In charge by her and given
decent sepulture. Coroner Moore held an
Inquest, and tbe jury rendered a verdict of
"accidental drowning."

King Theodore's Primo Minister.
A Paris letter Bays: "A piece of news, for
which I do not make myself responsible, but
whleh I extract from the Ilord, is the arrival in
Paris of tbe Prime Miuister of Theodore, a
French gentleman who visited Abyssinia for
commercial purposes, and whose Intelligence
attracted the King's notice, who enlisted him in
his service. His fate, however, rosembled that
of tbe chief baker in Pharaoh's houseluld. No
sooner hHd he found favor in the African mon
arch's household than the latter felt a stroug in
clination to tske oft' his bead and hang him nn a
tree. As a preparatory move, be cast him is'o a
dungeon and loaded him with chains. A fi'W
days before the landing of tbe English expedi
tion it struck the fancy of Theodore to send for
his former favorite, reappoint him Premier, put
on him a royal robe, and present him R'l h seve
ral wives (I translate). Contrary to European
precedent, this First Ijord of tbe Treasury
fought by the side of his sovereign, whom he de
clares to have been killed in action by English
soldiers. Furthermore, this personage, who
ought to be well up In the Theodorian dynasty,
abxertB that the King had an elder son, who Is
yet alive, and who, during the siege, fouirht at
the head of a tribe against his lather's adversa
ries. The iVord is usually well informed, and
stales tlie above as authealio, but does not tlve
the name of the gentleman."
