MR. JONES' VDLLI CLE RECORD.
Obtainsd It at a 1 of Unclaimed Ex
press Packng8,
Last Th nra ay evening George W.
Jones, of 14U Franklin avenue, attend
ed asaleot unclaimed p.ckag s held at
the office of the Unf ed State Express
cotnp iny and bid off for 20 cents u
small-aizsd bundle, which, when
onvned, was found to contain a num
ber of magazines und a book which is
certainly valuable as a rMic. The lat
ter is a narrative of tbe early Indian
wars an I was publish--' 1 in Boston in
the your 1C77. It is bound in leather
an I plainly enows the mirks of age,
tmt is still in a goil stat of preserva
tion. It contains 350 pages ami is writ
ten in the quaint styie ol theptrioi in
which it w.is produced. The author's
tiam does not appear, but the follow
ing permission to publish the bouk is
printed on the second lu.f:
The worthy author of this narra
tion, of whose fid' lity we are well assured,
by his grent pains and industry iu col loot
ing nu 1 compiling tha several occurences
of this Indian war. from tho relation of
snrh as were present In the particular ac
tions, bath faithfully aud truly nerf rmed
the same, as far as tho best, information
agney cottld bo obtained, which i-i there
fore judged, meet for public view; aud we,
whose names nro underwritten, deputed
by tho governor and council or Massa
chusettes Colony to peruse and license the
same, have and do accordingly order it to
be imp i inted, as bein of i ublic benefit
and judge the author to have d served due
acknowledgement and thanks for the
same. Simon Bhoadstreet,
DaJntL Wkmson,

boston, Mass.. March IV, 1UTU.
Ti:e volumo is in itself somewhat
interesting. It contains careful history
of the various Istrngglos with the In
dians up to the time of its publication,
as well as many incidents of peisonnl
bravery, savage cruelty, and hardship"
to which the pioneer colonists were
subjected.
A family record. dsHing bsck to 1820
is written on the inside of the envrrs
but so faded is the writing that wiih
two or three exceptions the names are
uot decipherable.
Mr, Jones has already had several
off n for the volume, but does not care
to sell it, as h" would much preter to
ruturn it to tbe rightful owner, should
ho be found. Any one claiming the
booh Will be asked to identify it by
giving an accurate description and tell
ing whose name are recordod on the
inside of the cover.
The vnlnm will bo placid in a class
esse nnd pnt on exhibition soon, so that
nny of our citizens who may desire cau
view the interesting relic.
CCWBOV EVANGELIST'S APPEAL.
Owing to a Sere Tech .ieil.ty It Ii Con
firmed by the Court.
The appsal taken by Cowboy Evan
geliet Rice against Mayor Omnell for
summary committment to the county
jail ou a charge of having unlawfully
obstructed the public highway and re
f isted i rrest, was yesterday morning
heard in court before Judges Archbald
and Ivlwards.
The validity of the ordinance wss uot
questioned, but US judges held that
since it did not dhue the uuisauctuor
provide a penalty for the alleged of
tense, the os- had no status iu court
and tho appeal w is t:irfore sustained.
Doth judges expressed regrets that a
mere teuuniuality sUould render such a
decision n"cssiry, condemning in
ctrong language all nuisances that on
