JJEFF. I>AVIS AS A W.OCBBB. - ; l - How Jeff. David Went Ontto »Wisconsin Boy, ond How lie Dtdn t Do It. • ' • [FromthiMilwaukee Sentinel,Nov..B.l It is probably known to but very few of the present citizens of our State that Wisconsin lias the high distinction of having given Mr. Jefferson Davis, cx-President of the ax-Con federate States, his first public whipping. It should bo remembered that Master JeiF. was educated for the army at the expense of the Government lie has so ungratefully be trayed, aiid entered tlie service as a lean, lank, imperious, overbearing Lieutenant, nnd was stationed at Fort Howard and Fort Winne bago about the years 1829 to 1831. In 18..0 or 1881 he was stationed at the latter post, where tlie circumstances we are about to relate oc curred. fFor ayear or two previous a Buck eye boy named Stewarts—a i\ill-sized, weil built, muscular man, and as good-natured -as an elephant—-had been |n the employ of Judge Arndt, of Green Bav, in building what were called Mackinaw boats, with which most ot the river transportation was done. At the time we are speaking of, Stewart, was engaged in mechanical work at Fort Winnebago, where Davis was stationed. . Jell'., in the meantime, had become enamored of a pretty youngs woman ,of semi-aboriginal origin, qr, in plain English, a lialf-breed, ami was very jealous of any attentions bestowed upon her by others. From some cause or other the monster within him fixed his green eyes upon Stewart, and he swore by all the buttons on his coat that he would cowhide the miserable Yankee out of his skin. The idea of such a miserable wisp of skin and bones at tacking such a built man ais Stewart was pre posterous enough,and his threats were regarded as mere Southern gasconade. But Jell, evi dently calculated, as he did on a later occasion, that the low-born, itlebeian would never dam to resist a higb-bjom Southron, but would croucb and take, all he might see fit to lay on, ami so. providing himself with a good cowhide, lie watched his opportunity. ■'The desired occasion was not long delayed. One. evening, after the day’s work was ended, as Stewart was walking in front of the fort, Davis came out and withont ceremony began to lay it on. But he found, as he did in the rebellion,that there were two parties to the con troversy. A blow or two was suihcient to arouse the lion, and Stewart, as he turned upon Win. planted his left digits under Jeff’s right ribs, and his right ones under his left ear, and knocked him end over end. Stewart was not a professional pugilist, and did not wait for his adversary to rise, but pounced upon him like a tiger, and, laying Jell's wrists side by side on bis chest, held them fcoth as in a vice with his left hand, and kept his right hand ready for further action. Poor Davis, half dead from the two sledge-hammer blows he had received, squirmed and twisted in vain., There, he was, fast as if he had been in the iron arms or a enillotine, and at the mercy of his adversary. By tin's time Stewart had become quite cool, and told Davis he deserved a good pounding, “but.” said lie, “ifyou will take back what you have said about me, and agree'to let me alone, I will let you up withont further injury. No, he would never do any such thing. Then Stewart began to slap Jeii'.’s face, first on this side and then on the other, and then repeated his demand, for the pledge, and Jeff, again re fused. Then he pulled his nose and twisted it, and slapped his face some more. In the mean time the ganison was all astir, and General, then Major, Twiggs, the same that went over to the rebellion with his whole command ot United States troops statkmed in Texas, .a giant of a man physically Standing about six feet six and of full proportions, but a confessed coward withal, canjg out and peremptorily or dered Stewart to let Davis up, an order, which, as commander of the fort, he could have executed summarily if he had had the pluck to do it. Stewart replied that he would not let him up an inch till he apologized and promised to keep the peace, and said he, “ Major, you ciiirtittfike me do it, and if yon want to take a band in this light, just try it on, and I will whip you and your whole garrison if; you will bring out your men in squads of not more than six at a time.”, And then he went on manipu lating Jefl.’s cheeks and nose and cars, aud repeating his demands for “indemnity for the past and security for the future,” while Twiggs looked on in mute astonishment at the audacious pluck of the Yankee boatbuilder. Finally, the embryo rebel President, seeing no way of escape, either by bluster, main strength, or the Interference of the Major, concluded to accept the situation, took all back and promised to treat Stewart as a gentleman, and was let i up, 'remarking, as he went away, that lie never received such blows from man or horse; and probably he never did again till another Buck eve hoy met him in another wilderness. lie said he felt as if lie had been kicked by a mule. Jeff, should have remembered that lesson, and never again presumed, as he did in getting up the rebellion, upon a Yankee’s holding still to he kicked. , , . .

All the Locks furnished under contract are to be, each, distinctly marked “U S. Mail,” in either sunk or raised letters, and all the Keys are to be numbered in the natural order; each Key having its appropri ate number distinctly stamped upon one side of the bow, and “ U. S.

A- Sinßsb-up on the Western Pacific Ilall- A San Francisco despatch, says: A few minutes after nine o’clock on Sunday morning the Eastern-bound train on the Western Pacific Bailroad, composed of tight cars, including pne sleeping-car, collided with the Alameda Ferry train of four cars, near San Leandro, Cal., Each train was going at the rate of 20 miies an hour, and the engines are a perfect wreck, and the cars mashed and driven through one another. The Western Pacific train left on time, but the morning was.so foggy that the engineer could see but a short distance ahead. Upon arriving at the switch where the Western Pacific connects with the Alameda road, the train slowed, and the switch tender, on being asked whether the Ferry train had passed, an swered, “All right. Go ahead.” vAnd in-a short time the trains collided with a terrific crash. ' ,The first passenger caron the Western Pacific lioad was driven through, mashing the ear. The other care are badly damaged. The number of killed and wounded is variously estimated at from ten to fifteen killed, and from thirty to fifty wounded, but it is impos sible to obtain the correct number at present. The following is a list of those known to be killed and wounded: - Killed—Alexander W. Baldwin, U. S. Dis trict Judge of Nevada, Virginia City ; Edw. Anderson, engineer of "the Western Pacific train; McDonald, road-master of the Cali fornia Pacific Bailroad; Mr. Boelet, Principal of the Young Ladies’ School of Oakland; Charles Martin, fireman of the Alameda train; George Thompson, fireman of the Western Pacific traiffDavid Ward, merchant of San Francisco; James Connolly, of Carroll Sta tion ; Max Ehrmann, merchant of San Jose, mid a man supposed to be B. H. Fox, from papers found on his body. Wounded—J. M. Perkins, a railroad em ploye, badly ; J. P. Lowell, of Sacramento,both legs badly jammed ; J.L. Bland, of. San Jose, slightly; Judge Wm. Campbell, U. S. District Attorney of Nevada, left leg broken ; B. B. HMeyy of S'ati Fraiicisco,biuised ; Patrick Ma hon, of Oakland,both legs broken; J. C. Knap, ■of Pleasanton, right leg mashed. Three men were killed by the side of Mr. Knap. Wbeii the trains collided the passengers were driven together and-crushed among the ruins. There was great difficulty in getting the pas sengers ont of the mins, and many will not be •extricated. The legs of one nian \vere amputated before he was released from the cars. . None of the passengers in the sleeping-car were hurt. The badly wounded were sent to Alameda. Donbtful Diamonds. Some years ago a story was invented that in dicing tlie Mont Cenis tunnel the laborers suddenly broke into a cavern which was one blaze of light from countless diamonds, rubies, sapphires and other precious stones—these widely-differing gems having huddled together, as snakes of various kinds sometimes do in caves where they hibernate;: in cold weather. • This extraordinary story was not only widely : copied in this country, but fit; was, repeated in continental journals, and found thousands or , believers.. Indeed, such stories are generally i believed,•'•peoplelike to believe in all tales of wonderful treasure-finding; Aladdin’s lamp, and the wonders it. performed, are veritable history, to children under twelve years Of age, and children of a larger growth believe in the gem cavern, of Mont Cenis t and; thepots •, of gold which are 1 turned up every week in flic • wilds of Texas, • y . •; :i , Arid now all England, that is, the credulous part •|';it ? is excited over the alleged discovery in Australia of a diamond* welghin'gbiie thou sand, one hundred carats, whichjtejconsiderably larger than the Kohinoor was before it cut, and is almost equal to the Russian crown, jewel, the “ Braganza,” w]iich last some people suppose may not. be a; diamond but a white topaz. If it is genuine it is worth, at the usua rate of computation for. such jewels, $2fj,000,000; arid the newly-found Australia* l diamond, if a diamond, is worth at tllfi same rate more than $18,000,000. But at latest accounts this diamond, though “found,” had not been “ made a note of” from actual inspection by any jeweler or : Other -ex pert in Sidney. It is “On the way” to that place, and is delayed possibly for want of relays of oxen to drag the stone or the tale of it. It is not unusual to find diamonds, small I ones, in gold-bearing regions, the gems con- I veniently locating themselves near their natural l settings, and a few have unquestionably been found since 18fi0 in Australia. It is alleged that one claim In Australia turned dot one hundred and nineteen diamonds last July; but the stone then alleged to have been found, as large as a turkey’s egg, and. another weighing five and a half carats, have both mysteriously disappeared. The fresh discoveries now look; as if the gold yield Was becoming short and something was needed to stimulate immigra tion ;• for this will be the inevitable, if not deliberately intended, effect of reported dia mond discoveries in that region. - BOB*OX-Stcamcr AriM, Wiley-22 Mis iron Atwater & SunreU; 29 ca boots and shoes T h Ashbridge; 89 pkgs mdse Bora & White: 10 bales waste J BUkoly; 11 caece mdse J Bossier; 10 do leadj 8 Bonnett ACo;24 do oil cloth G W Blabon;« cs boots and shoes Banting, Dn& borow&Co; 119 nkgs ink HCoben ABon;69bdlspaiß Chipman & White; fifes boots and shoes Conover, Dorff A Co; 19 do O 8 Claftln & Oo;7< bales 10 bags wool John Dotmon;2B pkgs drygoods Dale Bros;21 do boots and shots Early, Harris A Co: 1C do drygoods Frpthingham A Wells; Hdo boots and shoos C M Fay;2B bbls grease C II Grant;2o cb boots and shoes Graffs Watkins A Co; 24 Ekgs dry goods Gardner, Brewer A Co: 7 <lo Hood, Boti rigbt A Co: 14 colls rope Hluckle A Bon: 20 bales dry gowla Hamilton, Evans A DeConr any: 13 p kgs glassware li Harberger; 30 bales paper Howlcti, Onderdoak A Co; 39 do G Hobart; 22cs boots and shoes M Hayward; 10 cks starch O B jamiey; 106 cs chair stock Kilburn A Gates; 18 bdla iron P SKelley;s2 pkgs furniture D HI Karcher;l7 do uidsc J B LJppincott A Go; 190 do drj' gkods Lewis, Wharton A Co;7do indue Lalng N Maginnis; 50 do dry goods T T Lea A Co; 0 do drygoods Xeland, Alleu A Bates; 201 bdlA*p&per Xongßtretb A Co; l>cs boots and shoes Leviclf Bros; 8 rolls carpetings McCalinm, Crease A Bloan;J2ol>dlßirouCßlltldletoii;2o cks starch J Mar tin A Co;6 buds liams J Duke Murphy; 200 bags coffee J W McCohen A Co; 39 cs boots and shoes C D SlcClees; 9 do Monroe.
