The Lancaster Tobacco Market.
The past week has been an active one.
Great quantities of leaf have been pur
chased at greatly varying prices, and meic
of it has been delivered at the city ware
houses than during auy ether tice weeks
hi nee tlie first of April. We hear of sales
that were made as low as C and 2, 8 and 2,
and 5 cents through ; though a majority
of the sales were at 10 te 15 for wrappers,
0 for seconds and 3 for tillers. Several
sales are reported as high as 18, G and 3,
and a few ethers above 20 for wrappers.
The highest price reported is 31 cents
through, paid by Dan Mayer, agent for
Kerbs & Spicss, for a crop grevn by Levi
L. Laudis.
It is estimated that from one eight te
one-quarter of the crop of 1880 yet remains
in the hands of the grewcis, and is sweat
ing freely in bulk. It ought te be sold and
packed before het weather sets iu ; and the
probability is that it will be sold, as buyers
arc plenty, and express a willingness te
buy at fair, but net fabulous figures, and
the farmers arc, no doubt, anxious te gel
off with the old before they arc en with
the new crop.
Among the new comers within me past
week arc L. ltescushinc, of San Francisce;
M. Oppcnhcimer, of New Yerk ; Philip
Benn and O. Eiscnlehr, of Philadelphia. I
These gentlemen express themselves de-1
lighted with their drives through our
county.

The obsequies of the late Mrs. B. Fitz

last has been recorded in this paper, oc
curred at the family residence, Ne. 3:50

offerings. The celliu was borne te the
hearse by half a dozen police officers. The
pall bearers were James Stewart, II. R.
McConemy, M. MacGonigle and Wm. M.
Slaymakcr. The immense funeral cortege
proceeded from the residence te St. Mary's
cemetery, where the burial service was
recited, and the interment made in the

were marked by a sigular solemnity that
was in keeping with the unfeigned sorrow
which this death has occasioned through
out a wide circle of acquaintanceship and
flic community at large.

The suddenness of the death of Geerge
Erwiu, the popular restaurateur, at his
residence en Locust street, above Frent,
at an early hour" last evening, has been
the talk of the streets ever since its occur
rence. At 3:30 o'clock yesterday after
noon Erwin was apparently iu excellent
health He went te supper shortly after
that hour still well, but at 5:30 o'clock
the spirit had flown and the body was
lifeless. On the first manifestation
of the illness which proved fatal Dr.
Tayler was hastily summoned. Dr. S.
Armer was subsequently called in, but
neither of these physicians could afford
any lclicf. The tlisca-e from which Eiwiu
died is pronounced rheumatism of the
hcait. Deceased was 51 years of age. He
was a member of the Knights of the
3Iystic Chain, and also of the Vigilant liie
company.
Chief Burgess Sncath and High Consta
ble Strawbridge called last evening upon
the occupants of many of our tee popular
street corners and read te them an oidi eidi
nancc prohibiting the assemblage of per
sons at such places. The crowds thinned
out, but it was net long bufeic they were
again as bail as ever. The officers did
their duty. New, if the warning is net
sufficient, let them act, and vigorously, if
necessary. The law will sustain them.
Yesterday afternoon a young man,
whose name nobody appeared te knew,
hired a team from Geerge Redsecker, the
livery man, te take a young lady named
Miller out driving. The gentleman called
for 3Iiss Miller at her residence en Union
street above Fourth, and assisted her into
the buggy. Before he could get in himself
the horse started eit en a slew trot, but
the neighborhood turning out en masse te
step the beast, succeeded in frightening it
instead, aud the pace was quickened te a
considerable degree. A young man named
Harry Gcrfin displayed much indiscretion
in running directly at and against the
horse and he was overturned, rolled en
the ground and urn ever by two wheels of
the buggy, but without sustaining serious
injuries. The horse turned in Fifth
street te Walnut, and down Walnut te its
stable, where it stepped of its own accord.
All this time the lines were fastened
aieund the dasher of the buggy,'and the
lady by taking them up could easily have
stepped the horse, which 3Ir. Redxcckcr
assures us, is a very gentle animal. Neith
er horse, buggy, nor the latter's occupant
was injured.

DORSET'S TROUBLES.
Ills Premises te Partus Developing; Public
Interest la Mall Routes.
Denver, Cel., May 8. The Tribune
says it was discovered yesterday that pro
ceedings have been begun in the district
court of Arapahoe county agaiust ox-Senaeor
Dersey for money premised the
plaintiff for services rendered in
procuring a petition "creating au
interest among the people, &c." in
order te increase the mail facilities in cer
tain portions of Oregon. The bringing of
the suit here came about as fellows :
Seme months age a legal firm here received
from an attorney at Portland, Oregon, a
claim for collection against ex-Senater
Dersey. The claimant is a well-known pol
itician of Portland whose name fae Tribune
does net state. The latter has a number of
letters written by Dersey premising se
much per day for his services, and giving
minute directions new te proceed te gee
petitions for mail contracts &c. These
letters with the claim were placed in the
hands of Denver attorneys, and last win
ter when Dersey came te Denver te leek
after mining interests, he was visited by
one of the attorneys and the bundle of
letters aliened te have been written by
him were shown him in support et the
claim. Dersey pronounced the claim
fraudulent and denounced the claimant as
a blackmailer.
Proceeding were immediately beguu in
the district ceuit and Dersey instructed
his counsel te enter a demurrer en the
ground that these contracts were
illegal. 'Since then matters have re
mained in statu quo. One letter is dated
Washington, April 12, 1870, ami
tells the recipient that the writer wants
him te go te Eugcne City aud procure all
the petitions possible for au increase of
mail service from Eugene City te Bridge
Creek for daily instead of weekly service,
and also te have the time made faster.
The letter thus continues :
I want 10 or one dozen en this route ;
also get the people te write te the post
master general aud te their senators. We
want prominent Democrats te write te
Slater and Grever, urging them te st?e
that the increase is made."
The correspondent is further directed te
get ten or twelve different petitions en
each route, te have a large number of let
ters written te the postmaster general and
senators, and be sure that all ask for daily
and fast line ; te get the state officials aud
the Chamber of Commerce at Portland
also te write. The letter adds: "I will
pay your expenses while you are geno and
live dollars per day. If you have net the
means I will telegraph you sufficient."
The second letter was written four days
later. It states that contracts for each
read en the route from Bridge Creek te
Eugene City had been obtained for one
trip a week, and says, "if the schedule
time ia changed new contracts will have
te be made," and continues : "It is the
best we can de (and there must be a
guaranteed bend for the fulfillment of the
contract), lieing $7,000 per annum for
three trips weekly; time, one hundred
hours, which is slew walking time."
The writer further says : Make the
contract thus; three trips weekly, 37,500
per annum ; six trips weekly, $14,000 ;
seven trips $10,300. The contract
te run until July 1. 1882, and net
te be filed iu Washington." He
further says : " We must have a new
contract for the route from Leeking
Glass te Cogville. Make the contract for
the latter route . as fellows : Fer
three trips 62.000 (you may go te S3. 000) ;
for six trips $5,500 ; for seven trips $6,200.
Xe contract te be binding upon" us,
but upon them, until approved by
3Ir. Kidilell the agent here. Mr. Fink
has filed his contract. I-xlid net want it
tiL-d. I will pay him monthly if he wishes
it, but I de net want my contracts en file
hore."
The letter closes by exhorting the cor
respondents te send petitions, etc., " by
the carload" te himself, Slater and Assist
ant Postmaster General Brady. Anether
letter, concerning the same suit, and re
lating te a Washington territory contract,
is also published. These letters will be
produced in court as evidence te support
the claim.

JUNEBS' FAITH IN CLAIRVOYANCE.
WOTklSK Eighty Feet UBdergrenndtaSearch
or Ore That l Said te be There.
Several months age a charcoal burner at
Indiantown Gap, dreamed that at a cer
tain spot silver ero would be found. The
dream was repeated, he says, for five suc
cessive nights. He searched for a spot en
the meuneains like that which he had seen
in his dreams, and found one. A clairvoy
ant was then told of the dreams, and' a
seance followed at midnight ou
the .mountain, when the new moon
was apparently ever the spot. It
is clairned that 6trange noises were heard
en that night coming from the earth. A
few shovels of earth and gravel were
thrown up and a reek was taken out. and
examined. Veins of a bright mineral-like
substance could be traced in the stone and
when this news spread through the region
the valley was wild with excitement. The
spot is en the hill-side only a short distance
from the hut of old Jee Rabcr. who was
murdered by the- " Blue-cycd Sjr " te get
the $30,000 insurance en his life.
Ten hard-working backwoodsmen who
believed the gilt-edged story of the clair
voyant paid inilOOeacb, organized a com
pany, and resolved te begin operations at
once for ero. A force of ten men was put
te work en a shaft. After a few days'
work, one of the miners, named Kreiser,
was killed by a heavy bucket falling
en his head while working at the
bottom of the shaft. At first it
was supposed that the shaft would
be found at a depth of fifty feet ;
then sixty was named as the limit, then
eighty, and finally ninety. When the out
look at each limit was gloomy, the com
pany promptly made another ast-css-tneiit
and pushed the work ahead. The
shaft is new ever eighty feet deep and the
day and night shifts of men have been in
creased te fifteen. They are working under
Themas Jeb, an experienced ere miner
from the anthracite coal country. Netliine
of any value has yet been found.
