The reporter is necessarily obliged to re

of the changing incidents relating to what
goes on inside the stout prison walls which
hide from public view many doings which,
no doubt, would servo as delicious sensa

A few days ago the Rev. Mr. Best, in
conversation with the unhappy man upon
the subject as to what constituted true
repentance, took - occasion to tell him that
he must confess his crime, and suiting-the

His manner at times denotes some great
inward struggle, and it is now generally
believed here that he will continue to de

lotted him on earth. He constantly acts
as one who is expectant for some relief,
and all day long, when not visited by his
clerical friends,he stands at his grated door
peering out with countenance overcast
with au expression denoting a conflict be
tween hepe and Thar.
Yesterday afternoon, a prayer-meeting
was held in his cell, at which three minis-
Leis of the gd§piel mad several other per
sons were present. We learn that the
meeting was characterized With much so-.
lemnity, and its spirit was entered into
with more earnestness by the prisoner
than has been the ease on previous occa
sions. The day preceding, a Mrs. Wilson,
residing in the southern portion of Clus

Sabbath School teacher, paid him a visit,
and while with him labored earnestly for
his soul's salvation. Ile apparently does
not wish to be left alone at long intervals,
and when a visitor is announced by the

During the past week the prison inspec.
lore have made additional provisions.a
gainst any demonstration that might be
brought against that institution, having
for its purpose the release of the doomed
man. , These additional improvements
consist of grated doors being placed at the
doorways loading into the two yards ) into
which the nightwatehmen are required to

As yet but few preliminary arrange

some of the minor details of preparation

a9 - The Western papers are publishine
appeals fin. charity in behalf of the desti
tute in Kansas. One of these calls, from
Smith County, declares that the measures
taken by the Legislature are worse than
useless, and upbraids the Governornrith
a "narrow s pride" in "asserting that Kan
sas is willingoand able to take care of her
own peer." The committee who make
this appeal say that they must have as
sistance "ten-fold greater than the Legis
lature's scheme can afford, and greater,
than the State of Kansas can supply;"
that twenty counties, with a population
ranging from two thousand to..six thou
sand each, are almost destitute of food.—
The ease of Smith County, for instance,
is, that of its five thousand people 2,000
will be wholly dependent on charity with
in two mouths, and of the three thousand
remaining not fifty families have a sur
plus of provisions-for themselves, without
extending a pound of grain in support of
their teams, which are to the farmer in
dispensible. Au absolute community of
food, they estimate, would not supply
their families till April 1. These people,
say the committee, ar e in rags, mon
eyless, resoarceless ; and the farmers of
the eastern portion of the State, though
comparatively spared, are yet too crippled
by the disasters of drought, locusts and
chinch-bugs, to be able to do more than
take care of themselves. It is very hard
they say, to realize that persons in such a
country as ours can die of hunger, yet that
is, without exaggeration. the condition of
the people of western Kansas. A little
help will enable them to retain their
homes ; without it, the homesteads will be
desolate, and hence they appeal to reople
of the more favored portions of the country
fur assistance.

Tnt 'Ecursri.-7-The total eclipse of the
moon came off according to astronomers'
published programme on Sunday morn
ing last, the earth's shadow crossing its
disc a little after 2 o'clock. Owing to
the unsonsonable hour at which the eclipse
occurred but comparatively few of - our
citizens witnessed the sight. Those who
did remain up say the view was much ob
structed at times by
.floating clouds.

last our Band appeared on the street for
the first time in their new uniform, which
was much admired. The suit consists of
black pants and blue coat, trimmed elab

The instru men ts were highly polished,and
and the music, to our ear, never sounded

SERIOUS ACCIDENT.-Mr. George Mid

with an accident on Wednesday of last

in taking stone out of a quarry. It ap
pears a prop was accidentally knocked
out from under a large stone which in
fulling struck his left foot fracturing a
bone at the ankle joint and . otherwise se
riously spraining and bruising his foot.—
Dr. I.N. Snively adjusted the broken bone
and put the foot in proper shape. Though
confined to bed, at last accounts his situ

ed. We must have funds sufficient to pay
our paper bills at least, and of this we are
far short at present. Our accounts are
generally small and widely scattered.—
For this reason no thinking patron should
allow himself to fall much in arrears.—

JEAOUSY.--Thero ill nothing
in our estimation, so detrimental to the
;welfare of a town ' or, community - as the
jealousy of one business man toward an
other. It does not require a very careful
gbservation to see it - every :day.. Where
men might move along in the up-hill road
of life smoothly and friendly, -you will
find them, in 'many cases, 'watching and
waiting for the opportunity to "gain a
pant" ion _their' neighbor in_ business.—
Don't crowd each other gentlemen, the al
mighty dollar is not made for the grave.
Enjoy yourselves as: you go through the_
world ; lend your neighbor a helping hand
for you may need it In return s une day,
and when the time comes for you to be
laid away "among the rude forefathers of
the hamlet," let the urn of your ashes lie
blessed with thfiniernorYof deeds of kind
ness you have done towards your fellow
men. Business can -be made a pleasure
when men wish to make it so ; but local
jealousy must not be admitted into either
business or social circles. It requires a
unit."! Pffort, true; but - the ultimate re
sult will proveamutual benefit to all.—. Ex.

A TREASURE §roa.Y.- 7 Dirfllelds, Jef
ferson county, W. Va., October 7.—Your
correspondent was shown the tree, a few
days ago under which was dug the sum
of 840,000. The tree is an oak,and stands
on the west side of the road leading from
Charlestown to Shephcrdstown,and about
ten miles from the latter place. The sto
ry, as it•goes here, and which is believed
to bo a true one, is as follows : During
the war an officer of the Federal army,
who, had charge of a large sum of money,
a quartermaster or paymaster, buried the
$40,000 beneath the tree ; doing so eith
er from fear of its fulling into the hands
of the Confederates, iw it may have been
to secure it to himself. If the latter, he
succeeded. if we credit what follows,which
is told by parties who saw the evilems
of the facts and heard the story from the
party when he returned to take away the
buried treasure.
The party,. whose name is not given, or,
if ho gave one, was an assumed nail:ewes
tried a year or two after the war for the
embezzlement of government money—the
same money he had buried under the oak
in Jefferson county—was convicted of the
charge, and sentenced to serve a term of
years in the Albany Penitentiary. This
he did, and the law was satisfied, for he
declined to give any clue to the where
abouts of the money. His sentence expir
ed a few months ago, and, as was to be
expected, he lost no time in hurrying to
the spot where a fortune was to be had
for digging. It seems his knowledge of
the locality had somewhat failed, for he
was seen in the neighborhood for several
days, but one fine morning he had one,
and with him the money. The ground
under this tree presented the appearance
of a newly ploughed filld, having been
dug up during the night by the ex-con
vict for the space of a rod or more. The
pick and shovel he had borrowed in the
neighborhood he returned.
Strange as this story may appear, there
is no doubt but that money of some kind
was bdried there, and dug up. The a
mount is believed to have been the sum •
stated.—Baltimore Gazette.
