A. Itold Suriudle—A. Colored Man
Robbed of 3,0.00 by a Couple of
"Delegates."
Last night about nine o'clock, a colored
back driver named James Denny, while in
the neighborhood of the Union Depot, made
the acquaitance of a couple of similar com- -
plexioned "delegates," as they announced
themselves from South Carolina. The self
introduced strangers took occasion, while
expressing their views upon the state of the
nation, and other subjects of such special
importance to "cull'd pussons," to inform
James thatthey had in one of their trunks
a box of gold quartz of the value of throb
thousand dollars. This amount of the pre
cious metal they were desirous of convert
ing into too more convenient form of cur
rency, and the banks being closed they
would willingly lose the premium upon the
gold in order to be accommodated. James
Denny was the very man they were look
ing for, he informed them he had the re
quired amount in a safe nook at home.
The strangers enquired the distance it
might be to his residence.
"Oh not far, (ley could all go ober in de
hack to de house." The "delegates" were
doubtful about having sufficient time to go
a great distance, but very slight persuasion
from James and they were soon inside the
vehicle and tumbling along in the direction
of James' abode. On top of the hack sat
his eyes doubtless gazing on an imaginary
gold mine. Arriving at his house, James
procured the necessary amount of stamps
from theirplace of safely, and being dazzled
with a look at a sample of the bright, glis
tening gold he was to receive in return, the
trio once more departed for the Union
Depot, where the "trunk with a box in
side," was carefully guarded. The "dele
gates" on reaching the depot found they
had "scarcely a moment to spare," and
urged a speedy completion of the contract,
as they were desirous of reaching a reli
gions convention to be held on the morrow
at Philadelphia. The trunk was produced ;
there was "the box inside ;" it was opened ;
there were the huge lumps of gold quartz—
the trade was made, and the trio separated.
Home went Tames with his treasure. It was
shown to his family and friends. Ono aged
African questioned the ,genuineness of the
metal. This apparently troubled James
somewhat ; that hadn't occurred to him ;
and some persons versed in mineralogy
were called in; but a very short counsel
was held ere the "quartz" was pronounced
bogus. In fact a huge swindle bad been
sprung upon Mr. Denny—the contents of
"the box inside" being nothing more than
some large stones of a very bright appear
ance.
Leaving the heaviest man in the neigh
borhood to sit upon the trunk until ho re
turned. James made a bee line fur the
_Mayor's office. There ho told his story and
described the appearance of the delegates.
The necessary warrants were issued and at
the present writing (midnight) several of
our most sharp scented detectives, under
the direction of officer R. McCreedy, aro
scouring the neighborhood and telegraph
ing in various directions in hopes of secur
ing the "delegates." Our city police were
engaged up to a lute hour last night in
bringing to the tombs, one at a time, a large
proportion of the residents of "Hayti." As
yet the delegates from South Carolina are
non est inecatus,and James is undoubtedly a
victim of this negro suffer-age.--Pittsburg
Dispatch, 10th inst.
A certain lady of a certain ate, and un
familiar with modem hotel appliances,
went to visit Mrs. 8.. whO was stopping at
the St. James note', Boston. When she en
tered a servant appeared, and she requested
him to take her to Mrs. B.'s room, and was
shown into a little room, which, to use her
awn words, was "very small for such a
capacious house." But what was her as
tonisizzacza whlm the door was closed and
the servant placed his hand upon the knob?
In n somewhat 'agitated state of mind she
sprang to her feet and calmly said to the
servant, looking him full in the face, "I
want to be shown to Mrs. B.'s room." Be
fore the words were out of her mouth site
felt a very singular sensation. The very
room in which she was standing appeared
to be moving upward. Thoughts of the
great evils which are done to strangers in
our large ethics flashed through her mind,
hut thinking that one more effort on her
part might elicit front him on answer, she
said : "Sir, I want to be shown to Mrs. B.'s
room." At that moment the elevator stop
pod, the door was opened and' the servant
showe'd her to Mrs. B.'s room, where she
was restored to her former tranquility.
"Sick gittin' up stairs," site said, "she
had never experienced before."

A Ilkother wity'a corpse ht her
11321 fl
The Eastern train which arrived here the
other day, says the St. Paul Dispatch,
brought a party of between two and three
hundred immigrants. Among them was a
Swede woman coming with her only child,
a fine boy of three yearl, to join her hus
band who had preceded her a year or two.
While crossing the ocean, the child sick
ened. She was a stranger to her fellow
travelers save such acquaintances as she
picked up by the way, and having only lim
ited means, was unable to obtain proper
food and restoratives for the child. Arriv
ing at New York she pushed rapidly for
ward, intent upon reaching Minnesota, and
hoping that with the journey completed,
the child would again be restored to health.
All the way the little invalid was borne
in her arms, and it was evident to her com
panions that its stay was short. Thursday
night, soon after leaving McGregor, the
little suffeyer, still lying in his mother's
arms, died. It was some little time before
the mother -discovered that the child was
dead, and when she did, her grief is dis
-eribed as almost amounting to frenzy. All
night long she citing to the corpse of her
little one, and swinging her body to and
fro,, sobbed and moaned. Arriving at the
West St. Paul Depot, she alighted from the
cars, still weeping, and bearing the dead
body of her infant in her arms. Mr. Magee,
the railroad agent, on learning the condi
tion of affairs, had the _depot employees to
construct a cent, and the child being de
posited therein, it was borne to the West St.
Paul cemetery, followed by the mourning
mother, and given a Christian burial.
Those who witnessed the scene describe it
as touching in the extreme. The afflicted
mother continued her journey to join her
husband, and inform him of their irrepar
able loss.
Expert, Female Thieves.
A. serious joke was . played upon a respect
able citizen of Boston, on the Common,
during the jubilee week. While stroll ing
on one of the malls with his young children,
lie, with 'them, was attracted by a crowd,
which they through curiosity joined.
Ito observed in the gathering three young
women who behaved rather rudely, one of
them taking pains to push his daughter
roughly against him, and another appear
ing almost simultaneously by his side.
Withdrawing from the crowd, be pursued
his way toward home, and upon feeling for
his handkerchief in a side coat pocket,
found an empty portmonnaie, which some
what surprised him. Haying occasion soon
afterward to put his hand into the opposite
pocket, he was surprised to find two Inore—
larger and partaking of the dimensions of
pocket memorandas—with their contents
abstracted. Not desiring to be caught with
the evidence of the work of a pickpocket
upon his person, he was-at first at a loss to
proceed in the matter, and for a time Was
dumbfounded ; but recalling the occurrence
that caused him to leave the crowd on the
mall, be concluded to relate the circum
stances to the authorities, and did so. The
girls had evidently made a raid during the
day, and took this means of destroying the
traces of their guilt.

Cool Elopement.
One of the coolest elopements on record
took place at Ile rr Oak, this State,last week,
•A young woman aged 23 years, who had
been married about dye years, deliberately
went off with her husband's youngest
brother. There was no secrecy about it.
All was done with the full knowledge of the
injured husband. His wife packed up her
bed and clothing in his presence, which
were placed in a wagon, together with her
self and child by her paramour, when they
were driven about a mile to the residence
of the husband's father, the husband and
another brother following on foot.
Here the whole matter, which has been
contemplated for over a year, VAS freely
and deliberately talked over, the woman
declaring that she never loved her husband
as well as she did his youngest brother.
The young man then coolly helped his
brother's wife and child into the wagon, and
getting in himself, they left for parts un
known.—Detroit Tribune, SW-
Terrible Aceidsent.
Oa Tuesday morning a terrible accident
occurred at l'Nfr. Cleland's farm, on the, New
pOrt pike, near Wilmington, Delaware, by
which the wife of Mr. Hurst, the farmer of
the place, lost her life. There is n well on
tile place which adjoins the house and into
the top of which there is an opening from
the cellar to permit things to be lowered in
order to keep them cool. The well is thirty
feet deep below the level of the cellar floor.
On Tuesday morning-, Mrs. Hurst, in low
ering some butter or something of the kind
from the t rellar down into the well, lost her
ball:moo and fell down the well. Sbe gave
an alarm and her husband ran to her as
sistance. He managed to get her to the top
of the welt, when tier hold gave way and
she fell back again. A second time he
raised her slowly almost to the top, and
once more she fell back into the Water and
by the time that assistance had arrived she
was hoisted for the third time when she was
found to lie dead. Deceased was a Watt= of
about middle age.— iViintin9ton. Cola.

in which they expressed their sympathy
and made an appeal for peace us follows F
We would have you know that our Gov
ernment is of and for the people, and we
encourage you to prepare yourselves for a
representation and participation therein,
that you may enter the councils of the na

may be happier, and, by giving us your
wisdom, endurance, and bravery, subserve

It is always attended with suffering and
loss; and in a kind and fraternal inter
course there will be found the true way to
redress wrongs, vindicate rights, and estab
lish the blessings of amity and peace.
Many replies have been-received, and
souse of them are published. El . vira G.
Platt, a teacher in charge of the Pawnee
Manuel Labor School, ineloses responses
made by several Indian chiefs when she
recited the message to them.
Peet-a-la-na-sbaio, first chief of the na.-
tion,says "I am rejoiced to hear that I
hav7friends who care so much for me, and
now I hope what I have so long desired I
shall obtain—a home likea white man. My
great father has sent me wagons and plows,
but I have no large horses to draw them.
I would like it ho would send tee some, end
then plowing and living in a house, the
white men, when they look at me, will think
I am like them !" Tei-rer-eo•aw-ab, first
chief of the Tappish baud, says "It those
people they promise to send us come, and
do not cheat as, I shall have u poor mind no
longer. Te-row-whitey-pa-thor-o, first chief
of the Republican band, says: " I went to
Washington and heard what say Great
Father there said, and I thought ho would
not lie. "He promised us honest agents, but
some have cheated us. lam glad he will
send us one he is sure will not cheat. I
would like to have a house liken white
man, and at least four large horses to draw
my plow and wagons--my ponies are too
small for that work. lum always happy
to visit the school, and see the children
learning. I know the time is near when I
cannot hunt buffalo, and then we should
know, how to work like the whites." La ta-
Bets-No-Share says: "This is a very
pleasant letter,- and I hope if the people
come bore they will treat us as the letter
says they will. I agree with those people, I
do not like to Light, but sometizues we um I
obliged to. If we can have au agent that
will see that all is done that this loiter
speaks of, I shall be glad to see him. I.
want to work like the whites, for I see the
day is coming when we must live like them.
These are the words of the First Chief of the
I I 'Pawnee tribe." The Second Chief, Baptiste
Bayhulle, -who is also Interpreter, says :
This is - the - betit; later T' have everMee'rd,
and I hope those who have written it are
truly our friends. If they are, and do as
they say they desire to do, I feel it is going
to be n help to Loy tribe to have such a peo
ple here. Anything they wish to do for my
tribe they will ever find me ready to help
them do."
The Oneida, Wisconsin, Indians, reply at
length, the document being signed with
their marks, by seven Chiefs and 30 head
men. The tribes, they say, however, lira
not united in making the response. Among
the desires eltpressed by them is to have
their lands surveyed and allotted to indi
vidual owners, with a provision that "those
who wish to do so may assume the duties
and responsibilities of full citizenship at
once."
Sleep for Brain-Workers.
In a late number of the College Courant
is an article on sleep by Dr. G. W. Beard,
from which we make the following extract:
Students who aro really faithful, labor
ious brain-workers need all the sleep they
can get, whether at night or in the daytime.
The night is the most appropriate season
for sleep, and yet we should never hesitate
to take a nap in the daytime whenever we
find it necessary. Amid the cares and re
sponsibilities of our modern civilization,
there are unnumbered interruptions and
contingencies that make it practically im
possible for us to obtain our full amount of
sleep in the hours that are usually devoted
to that purpose. Now there is no law so
imperative on man as the law that requires
us to sleep. If we deny ourselves of it ; it
we get behind, and, to use the expression of
the street, fall into debt to Nature in this
respect, we must improve the first opportu
nity to make ourselves good, else we shall
ultimately fall.
A brain-worker who religiously enjoys a
liberal amount of sleep may preserve his
health and elasticity, even though he vio
lates every other law of hygiene. On the
contrary, he who faithfully observes all the
rules of diet, of exercise, and of labor, yet
denies himself of sleep, is really guilty of
all, and can by no means escape unpunish
ed. There is no appeal from this law. There
is no virtue that can redeem its violation.
It admits of no atonement. To sleep is the
one great hygienic commandment. It is
the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning
and the end, the first and last of the groat
laws of mental hygiene. Ile who under
stands and obeys this law really under
stands and obeys the whole hygienic deca
logue, for no one can long bleep well who
persistently disregards the other taws of
health,
Sleep is one of the best of pur thermome
ters of:health. By the quantity and quality
of sleep that our patients can take we can
best judge of theirdaily conditions and their
progress toward recovery. We always feel
assured that whatever improves thesloop of
the exhausted invalid to that degree helps
him toward recovery, and that whatver
disturbs this sleep to that degree brings
ou relapse and disease. Sleeplessness is one
of the earliest and most constant symp
toms of insanity, of hypochondrias, and of
all the nameless forms of nervous derange
ment. Whenever, therefore, we find that
we ure not sleeping us well us we are wont,
when our dreams are peculiarly dark and
ugly and distressing, uud leave unsightly
sears in the memory, when we roll and toss
and worry through the watches of the
night, anxiously waiting for the day, when
we awake long before our ucctistomed hour
of rising and find no pleasure in the morn
ing nap, then may we suspect that our bark
is nearing the quicksands am) shallows,and
then without delay staiuld we examine our
charts, revise our calculations, and, accord
ing to our best judgment return to the
channel front which we have suffered our
selves to be driven.

I Wish I Had Capital."
So we heard agrent, strapping young man
exclaim the.other day in an office.
We did want to give him a piece of our
mind So bad; and we'll just write -to him.
You want capital, do you ? And suppose
you had what you call capital, whet would
you do with it? You won't capital? nay
'
en't you hands 'and feet, and muscle and
bone, and brains, and don't you call them
capital? What snore capital did God give
anybody ?
" Oh, but they are not money," say you.
But they are more than money, and nobody
can take them from you. Don't know bow
to use them? It you don't, it is time you
were learning. Take hold of the first plough
or hoe, or jackplane or broad axe you can
find, and go to work. Your capital will
soon yield you a large interest. Ay, but
there's the rub ! You don't want to work !
you want mouey on credit, that you may
playgentletnan and speculate, and end by
playing the vagabond. Or you want a plan
tation, with plenty of hirelings to do the
work, while you ran over the country and
dissipate ; or you want to marry some rich
girl who may be foolish enough to take
you for your gond looks, that she rnay sup
port you.
Shame on yon, young man. Cio to work
with the capital you have, and you will soon
make interest enough upon it to give :IS
much money as you want and make you
feel like a man. If you can't make money
on the capital you have, you could not
make it if you had a million dollars in
money. If you don't know bow to use
bone and muscle and brains, you would not
know how to use gold. If you let what
capital you have lie idle and waste and rust
out, it would be the same thing with you
if you had gold ; you would know how to
waste.
I Then don't stand about idle, a great help
less child, waiting for somebody to come
and feed you, but go to work. Take the
first work you can find, no matter what it
is, so long as you do it well. Yes, whatever
you undertake, do it well ; always do your
best. It you manage the capital you have,
you will soon have plenty more to manage;
but if you can't or won't manage the capi
tal God has given you, you will never hAVO
any other to manage.
Do you hear, you man ?
Inconsisteney.
Beaded knees, while you are clothed with
pride; heavenly petitions, while you are
hoarding up treasures upon earth ; holy de
votions, while you live in the follies of the
world; prayers of meekness and charity,
while your heart is the seat of spite and re
sentment ; hours of prayer, while you give
up days and years to idle diversions, im
pertinent visits, and foolish ,pleasures ; are
as absurd, unacceptable services to God, as
forms of thanksgiving from a person that
lives iu repiniuga and diseuntent.
Man is not an isolated. creature ; be is it
link of one great and mighty chain, and
each necessarily has a dependence upon
each other. In society, he is like the - Rower
blown in its native heti ; in solitude, like
the blasted shrub of the desert—neither
giving nor receiving support, the energies
of his nature fail him, and be droops,
tio
gcderates, and dies. • ' - -
Success rides on every hear. - Grapple it,
and you may win; but, without a grapple,
it win never go with you. Work is the
weapon of honor, and he who lacks the '
weapon will never triumph.
This much of good atleast may be learned
from the mirror—its reflections aro always
truthful.
From Jerusalem to White Pine.
The Hamilton Empire, of June 26th, says :
Among the relics deposited iu the corner
Stone of the Masonic and Odd Fellows' Hall,
day before yesterday, at Shermautown, was
a piece of beautiful marble, 'from the site
and ruins of King Solomon's Temple at
Jerusalem, and vouched ror by Professor
Israel S. Diehl, who in his Oriental travels,
visited the ruins of the foundations, arches
and quarries of Solomon's Temple, still ex
taut upon Mount Moriab, where vast quan
tities of the original stone pillars and pil
lasters, with the quarries themselves under
the city, may still be saint as real and per
fect or definite as over. That such a King
as Solomon, a city of Jerusalem, or a Tem
ple existed, corroborating and proving the
Biblical account, as well as traditions that
have come down through three thousand
years. The above specimen was donated
for the occasion by Professor Diehl, uniting
Solotuou's Temple and Jerusalem with

Cave Discovered by a Spider.
A gentletuan in Davenport, lowa, called
upon smother, on INConday last, and finding
him fast asleep under a clump of trees in.
his grounds, with a book by his side, he
saw that a large black spider had woven
its web across and just above his friend's
month, Every once and a while the spi
der would run to the center of the web, take
a survey of the cavern below for a moment,
and then suddeni t y drop right between the
open jaws and stay there suspended until
satisfied with the looks of the background
of its web, when it would quickly ascend
and continue its work. The operation was
continued three times, when the ob:aerver
thought it thne to end the performance. In
brushing away the web he woke his friend,
who will, perhaps, change his custom of
sleeping out of doors, or sleep with his
mouth shut.
Arab 'Women.
The Arab women on the banks of the Nile

a striking simplicity of dress. The poorest

Veil they bold in their mouths when they

large mask of black taffeta covers the face
of the rich females, leaving nothing to be
seen but tho eyes and the fiirchead. Ear-
rings, several necklaces of shells or paste,
intermingled with amulets of silver ur of
polished copper, bracelets, various and
multiplied ; the chin, the hands and part of
the arms tattooed with blue, the eyelashes
tinged with block—such are the particulars
which complete the dress of an Arab female
and which, notwithstanding their apparent
fautasticainess, produce an, original and
graceful ensemble.
TILE Ice factory at New Orleans is a great
success. It consists of six retorts of a chem
ical feeziug mixture. From these six re
torts six pipes descend to six huge chests,
which chests in turn radiate severally off
into four cOmpart Wet/ ts. In each compart
ment are long, thin tin cases, seven on one
side and eight on the other. This making
by all the rules of arithmetic a total of fifty-
Cases in a box, and there MIT, four
boxes to a chest, and six chests to a factory,
it follows that, at full blast, this Southern
ice factory can turn out 1,311 cakes of Ice
eighteen inches long, twelve broad, and two
thick, at the completion of each process.
The ice is much colder than that frozen
naturally, and lasts much longer. - The fac
tory is joint stock enterprise, and the prop
erty is exceedingly lucrative.

Raising Celery.
The successful raising of celery is one of
the most difficult things to achieve in gar
den culture. It requires nearly as much
attention as hot-house grapes. The failure
in raising this vegetable, which is the rule,
is mainly from neglect of certain conditions,
These are, I. Trenches should be dug from
eight to ten inches in depth, in rich soil. 2.
The trenches should behalf filled with well
rotted manure, mixed with the soil, in
which the plants should be set well down.
3. There should be only a single row of
plants, instead of two or more - as is com
monly the case. 4. The plants should be
sot out from ten days to two weeks earlier
than is customary; that is to say, for the
first crop the last week in June, and the
rest or the bulk of the crop in the two first
weeks in July. Boards should be placed
over the rows to protect the plants against
the seorchings of the sun from ten to four
o'clock until they have taken a firm grasp
of the earth and commence growing. They
should be watered for some time, in the ab
sence of rain, twice a day, afterwards once
a day. Alter growing about eight inches
the earth should be carefully drawn to the
rows and continued gradually as the
growth progresses. Manure-water is ex
cellent and should be applied at least twice
a week until the middle of October. Guano
water is the best. In drawing the earth to
the plants, care must be taken not to cover
the loaders and stunt the growth. Use the
baud altogether in distributing the soil
about the plants and releasing the leaves
when covered. Celery can be produced
four feet in length from the root to the top
of the leaves, by good management, and we
have so grown it more than once upon our
own promises.
Lead Potooniug.
The Journal of aientistry condemns, in
strict language, the practice of putting up
articles of diet in envelopes of tin-foil. The
tin-foil, it contends, contains lead poison,
and is very injurious to the health of those
who eat articles that have been enclosed in
it. The warning given to tobdcco-chewers
against the use of "tine cut" put up in this
style is worthy of attention. By oxidiza
tion the nicotine of the tobacco becomes
nicotic acid, which acts on lead, producing
a salt which is very poisonous, and not un
frequently shows its deleterious effects
among consumers of "the weed" in the
form of paralysis of the facial nerves. We
often see, and perhapsin most cases without
realizing the cause, persons who aro in the
habit of chewing tobacco, afflicted with a
nervous twitching of the muscles of the lace,
and a certain, though en almost indesbriba
hie ,wrinkled expression of the countenance,
and - which, as there is every - reason to be
lieve, has its sole origin in the use of tobacco
which has undergone this reaction with
lead. The tobacco alone has never been
Iwo wzi to produco this effect, and-although
-its . inordlnato use is nridOutitedtyirdurions,
the symptoms aro quite of a different char
acter, Foreign cheese is brought into this
market in tin-foil; so are Bologna and
other sausages, dried fruits, etc. All these
are more or less made poisonous by their

Snake-Charmer , * Death.
A Young man named Joseph Wagner,
living in Charleston, West Virginia, pro
fessed to have the power to charm snakes.
Last Thursday, having captured a rattle
snake, he was giving sumo friends an exhi
bition of his power.
After fondling the snake for a time in hie
arms, ho threw it on the ground, and
switched it Until it writhed with rage. He
then took the reptile up in his arms again,
and saying, "Are you mad? Kiss me and
make up," ho put its head in his mouth.
The snake bit his tongue, and ho died in
about. an hour afterward. In fifteen minu
tes after being bitten his shin assumed the
spotted color of ihe snake.
A Warning.
An Illinois paper utters a warning "Peo
ple at this season should look out for the
large worm which infests the tomato vines.
Its-sting is deadly poison. It is of a green
color, two or three incheslong, and as large
us a man's linger. At Red Creek, Wayne
county, a few days ago, a servant girl,
while gathering tomatoes, received a punc
ture from one of these worms,whieh created
a sensation similar to that of a bee sting. I n
a short time the poison penetrated to every
part of her systeta,and she was thrown into
spasms which ended in death."
