Having so many calls for a two-wheeled Velocipede, we have constructed the : „ PEERLESS“ Bicycle, which, for elegance and taste, combined with great dura- bility, is unsurpassed. As shown by the above cut, the seat is placed almost directly over the eenter of the front wheel, by which arrangement a much larger wheel can be ridden, thus gaining more speed by less power and easier movement, Of the four sizes that we make, Nos. 1 and 2 are adapted for boys’ use. All the iron parts are malleable, and brightly tinned. The connections are of tron tub- ing, painted in high colors. Nos. 3 and 4 are fully strong enough for men’s use, The wheels are made of the best material, with hand-shaved spokes and heavy welded tires. The connections are made of iron tubing, well-fitted and finished in a superior manner. : No. 1. Has 28 inch front wheel and 28 inch hind wheel, “C2... ae és 6 ss 10 „ 36 „ 6 Tul +6 “ ££... eae eo: ge '"8 ss CHERVER, HURCHARD & CO Louis.

Instead of excluding the sunlight trom our houses, lest it fade carpets, draw flies, and bring freckles, should open every door and window and bia it enter. It brings life and health and joy; there isthe balm of health in its beams, itdrives away diseate and damp- ness, mould, megrims. Instead of doing this, however, many caretul honsewives close the blinds, draw down the shades, ex the door, shut out the glorilying rays and rejoice in dim nbd musty coolness and twilight of the un heathy apartments. It is pleasant and notun- wholesome, during the glare of the noontide, to subdue the light and exclude the air quiver- ing with heat, but in the morning and in the evening we may treely indulge in the sun bath, and jet it food all our rooms, and if at its very fiercest and brightest it has full entrance to our * Wire netting in doors and win of bed gives irregular motion to the tr and another, time, and put off the other time. faust. you wo vogue, im a lite. areund neckluce. nnscerstood to COalubies=. some other bril.iant color, a lthe lage.

With this wire as a protection from inti usive win ged creatures, one may almost dispense with shades and shutters, and enjoy all the bene- fits of an open house without any annoyances so frequent in warm weather. But better the annoyances with sunshine than freedom from them without it. Statistics of epidemics bave shown that it they rage in any part of a city they will prevail in houses which are exposed to the least sunshine, while those most ex- posed to it will not be at all or but slightiy af- fected. Even in the same house persons occu- vying rooms cxposed to sunlight will be healthier and repulse epidemical influences better than those occupying rooms where no sunlight enters. so much the Early Rising. For those who live in loculities where peo- pie van retire ats or 9 o'clock in the evening, the old custom ot msing early is still appropri ate. But he who is kept up till 10 or 11 and then rises at 5or 6. because of the teachings of some old ditty about ‘‘early to rise, is com- mitting asin against his soul. There is not one man in ten thousand who can afford to do without seven or gut hours’ sleep. All tne stuff thathas been written about greit men that sleep only three or four hours a night is apocryphal. They have been putupon such small allowances and prospered, but no man ever kept healthy in body and mind for a nun ber of years with less than seven hours’ If you can't get to bed till late, therrvise lute.

All the monographs have been written by authors al- ready eminent, and the series has been in ne wuy lowered by the volume now before us— The Life of Lincoln, by Charles G. Leland. Beginning atthe birthofAbraham Lincoln, February 12, 1509, the story is well teld to its tragic finale on the 15th of April, 1365. It needs a peculiar mind to appreciate right ly the remarkable qafeer of President Lincoln, and Mr. Leland very nearly has this mind. The earlier life ot Lincoln, the rugged char- acter tormed in his bard and desolate youth, nlilthe incidents of his life, are well told. But it is in his debates with Stephen A. Douglas that national interest takes hold of his life. Judge Dougias introduced the Kansas Ne- braska billon the 4th ot January, 1854, and undid all the work of the Missouri Compro- mise. The country was flercely agitated, and after his return from Washington Douglas de- tended the Kunsas-Nebrask: bill at Springfield, Illinois, Oetober 4, 1854, and was answered by Abraham Lincoln, comparatively an unknown man. Fronraun unknown man he became the head andfrontotthe Nortbern opposition tg the slave power. From Springfield Lincoln followed Douglas to Peoria, where he delivered, in debate, another great speech. Not ‘liking slavery in Uself, lAncoln was willing to let it alone under tue gid compromise, but he would never suffer its introduction to new territories, and he made it clear @§ day that Douglas, by opening the flood gute ol slavery on tree soil, had jet loose a torrent which, if unchecked, would sweep everything to destruction. He had, previously, at Springneld, disclosed the failucy of Douglas’ great principle“ by a single sentence giant to Kansas basa pertect right to govern himself, but 1 deny his right to govern any other person without that person's consent. such arguments were . overwhelming, Douglas, the Giant of the West, and the foremost politician in Awmerica felt tbat he had met his master at his own peculiar weapons—oratory and debate. He sent for Lincoin and proposed that both should retrain from speaking during the campaign, and Lincoln, conscious of his superior strength, agreed. The Chicago Convention met amid the up- heavals of revolution. The country had be- come thoroughly sectionalized, and the nomi- nation to be made by the Convention was eagerly watched by every statesman in the land. It is a pity that Mr. Leland did not do more justice to the Chicago Con- vention, asit was one of the most momentous ever held in America. He contents bimself with quoting from Lamon as to Mr. Lincoln’s doings during the session: Alithat day, and all the day previous, Mr. Lincoln was at Sprinefield, trying to behave as usual, Dut watching with nervous anxiety the proceedings of the Convention as they were reported by tele- graph. On both days he played a great deal at ives in a ball alley. It is probabie that be took this physical mcde of working off or keep! down the excitement that threat. ened to possess him. About nine o’clock in the morning Mr. Lincoln came to the office ot Dincoln and Herndon. Mr. Baker entered with atelegram which suid the — — — — — ö—-—ä6k . ‘‘ladmit that the em- and. atch.

When the news of the first ballot came over the wire, it was apparent to ail present that Mr. Lincoln thought it very favor- able. He beleved that if Mr. Seward failed to get the nonunation, orto come very near ity on the first ballot, he would failultogether. Pres- entiy news of the second ballot came amd Mr. Lincoln showed by his manner that he considered the matter no longer doubtful. Ave got him,“ seidhe. Whenthe decisive Gi-patch at last aprived there was great com- Motion. Mr. Lincoln seemed to be eum, bat a close observer could detect in his countenance the evidences of Ceep emotion. During the tour years that tollowed there is no heed to follow the pwurrative. The fierce light that beats upon a throne has thrown every detail of Lincoln's life into strong relief. This work of Leland'se tukes a strongly paitisan, an ultra-Abolition view of every incident of the time, und his work loses much that a calmer and more historical volume would give. The culminating tragedy of the whole era wasthe assassination of the President by ths crazy actor Booth, and the lame attempt to implicate the Southern authorities in what North and South united in deaouncing as the most cowardly wurder of the century, re- flEects no crediton Mr. Leland's knowledge of history and but little ou his judgment. The story is told as follows: At9Yo'clock Lincoln and his wife reached the | crowded theater and were received with erent applause. Then the murderer went to his work. Through the crowd in the rear of the dress circle, pe tiently end softly, he made his way to the dor opening into the dark, harrow passave leading te the President's box. lleve he showed tt card to the man in attendance, saying that Mr. Lincoln had sent tor himn,and the man, nothing doubt ing, admitted him Heentered the vestibule and secured the door behind him by bracing eeulretitthe piece of board already mentioned. lie then drew asmall silver-mounted derrin- ger pistol,whichhe held in bis right hand, having a long, double ecdsed dag- in .

At this instant Booth pussed by the inner door into the box, and stepping Softly behina the Presl- cers, holding the pistol over the chair, shot him through the back of the hend. Thebali entered on the left side be. hind the car, through the brain, and lodged just Lehind the right eye. Presiderat Lincola middle no great movement, — his head feil slightly forward. un d his exes closed. lie seemed = stunned, As the report of the pistol rang through tie house many of the audience supposed it was part of some new incident introduced into the pley. Mujor Rathbone, who was tn the box. saw ut once what hadoccurred, and threw him self on Booth, who dropped the pistol und feed himself by stabbing his assailant in the erm near the shoulder. The murderer then rushed to the frontot the box, and, in asharp, loud voice, exclaiming, ‘*Sic semper tyrannis —the motto ot Virginia—leaped upon the stage below. As he went over, his spurcaughtin the American Hag, which Mr. Lincoln tad grasp- ed, nnd be iei!.

Col. Henry Spurlock, one of the Colorado delegates to the Militia Convention, which ad- journed on Thursday last, was met by a Post- DISPATCH reporter,to whom be gave some curi- ons accounts of travel and adventure in the tur west. The Colonel has been on the plains ever since the war, andfewmen have noticed more viosély the wonderful curiosities of that section. The great American desert, especially, ts a region of which little is known in civilization, and it is one which Col. Spurlock has thor. ougbly examined. 1 As u result of numerous questions he gave the tollowing narrative of his first trip: In the summer of seventy-seven, two gen. tlemen ahd myself were down at Santa Monica, on the Pacitic Coast. We wanted to get to the head waiers of the Gila, and we took train across coun- try to Duos Palmas, where the Prescott mail leaves the raflroad. There is a hack line across the country to Tucson, and we bought our tickets and climbed on board the buck board’ for a trip across THE GREAT AMERICAN DESERT. On the old maps which they used to use when I was aschool boy there Was a district marked off and called the Ameriéan Desert. It is not givenon the later maps, but it isthere all the same, and a wore desolate, sterile und worthicas piece of country you couldn't tind even in Sabura. Ine buck-board is a kind ot hack—all vehf cles which carry people are hacks on the plains—whicl: is more nearly like the skeleton of a wugon than anything else. The hiud und fore wheels are tacked together with springy planks, upon which the seats are disposed, and for a half-way level couniry it is a pleasant enough kind of a wagon, but for the roads we traveled it simply,empha- sized the jolts. When the driver started up his team—four horses by the way, and none too many—tne wheels sank almost hub deep inthe sand, and the drag was heavy the whole trip through. Of course we had taken the precaution to fill our canteens with water, asthe first stution was twenty-tive miles away. The breakfast was enough to set one’s teeth on edge by the bare recollection, but I was too old a campaigner to miss my meal. »The only vegetation through the land is,the eactus and date palm. The palm stands about six feet, and has a bunch of leaves at the top, thatin the dark cause itto be mistaken for a man. ‘‘l was never more surprised than at seeing the wondertul deygiopmeritet the cactus plant in this region. . siutisfied that nowhere in the world such se is attained. The species culled Swatara grows to the enormous height of sixty feet and measures six feet in diameier, There ave tens of thousands of this species. Most of them will measure from eight inches to twofeet in diameter, and reach a height ot twenty to thirtyfeet. Some have no limbs, and resemble a high post; others have from one to thice arms. They seem to stand onthe top of the sand, with ecarcely any root, and must re- ceive their nutrition largely. trom the atmos phire. They are capped with A BEAUTIFUL FLOWER, sndthem with fruit. Tie Indians remove the fruit with it long spike pole, and use it in lurge (puantities: The center of this cactus is pierced with a bard, tough rod, which supports it in time of storm. ‘So flitm is this support that one is se! com found broken or blown to the earth. Whenin a state of decay you can extract the center of support, whicn resembies more than envthing else n fishing rod. There are fifteen ortwenty different species of cacti growing in this region. The pole cactus grows much like a large corn-stalk. Each year's*growth is in dicated by ujoint, undarich, tenacious gum exudes from the surface,causing it to burn like pine when itis entirely green, There are two varieties of what is called the bulb. These crow in the form of a ball and nearly the sizeof u pint cup. The one variety is armed with thorns halt an inch in length, the other witha different kind of thorn, much ro- seinbling and about the lengthota poreupine’s quill. These thorns are as shurp as mneedies, und require but little pressure to penetrate their entire lengthinto the foot ot aman or hoot of u horse.

The pulp is of the consistency ot the banana, but much sweeter and very fuallot black, flat seeds, the siac of a dime. As lar as I have been able to ascertain there are THREE KINDS OF FRUIT growing On as many different species of cacti in this desert land. Another kind, prized more than allthe rest by the Indians, very much re sembles our century plant. The wild Apaches have tor ages depended largely on this for sus- tenance, They boil the root, make into mush und thus eat it, and from the balance ot the plant make a sourdrink, which they greatly enjoy. Just as we were crossing an arroya, or deep gulch, one of the linch pins of the wagon gave way, und we were all thrown out, our canteens ot water had been exhausted, and the delay made our thirst intolerable. The heat was in tense, for the thermometer in those plains stands sometimes at 129 ©, and just hereis where men learn to appreciate the valine ot wuterzsand yet there is none ft to drink in all this vast country.

Preparations have been completed for a six days! go-as-you- please pedestrian contest at St. George's Hall, commencing next Monday morning, for the Denton belt. The competitors are first-class amateurs and protessionals, and though the track is emall and the surroundings cramped and poor, the close of the walk will show a good round number of miles. The Bench Show of dogs at the Fair Grounds next week will prove a principal feature of the week's sport. Hundreds of costly canines from all parts of the world wiil be on exhibition, ana the prizes will be both numerous and costly. In boating cir cles, all is quiet. The Moudocs are content to re- tain barge championship, anda better feel- ing prevails among the respective clubs of the Mound City Rowing Association than for Months past. The experiment of week day regatias has proven a miserable failure, and next season the old Sunday system will be re- turned to.

It wus arranged that the match shall come off dvriny the last week in October, and in some suitable hall not yet fixed upon. The gime will occupy three nights, as the number of points to be played is 3,000—1,000 to be played each night—the winner to take the stakes and the gate money, over expenses.

One night when the opera was Rossini’s ‘‘Otelo,’’ the uppl»use was louder thanusual and the show er of bc uguets heavier than ever. To one bouquet was attached a2 piece of paper, which Otello took up and read aloud: ‘‘ Bank of Eng. lund, pav to bearer one thousand pounds ster- ling.’’ Malibran stepped up and whispered a few words. Otello continued: Ladies and genticmen, lam sorry that Jam not allowed to revd the restof the paper, whi-h we openel by mistake, and which i- intended fur the poor of the metropolis. '’ An amusing story is told of Monsieur Jullien, whose monster concerts were atone time the wonder of the musical werld.

One day his French crummers were revearsing for his new Indian quadrille, The eflect was perfectly deafening. ‘‘lcan't hear you, hesbouted. They must have been heard a league away, but they com- placently trebled their efforts. ‘‘Ilcan’t hear vou now,’’ he yelled again. With the perspi- fration drippingin streams from their faces, they made yet further exertions, ‘‘I can't hear you yet,’’ he shrieked, and so until a noise was produced which sati-fied even his thunder loving ear. The London Figaro says in a recent number: A correspondent. (never mind who) at Pon- tresina writes that a remarkable performance of ‘Cox and Box’ took place las?

His real nume was Jules Gaffish, and he did well to change it for the more sonorous one which he has made famous. He was: born in 1823, and mude his debut at Antwerpin 1846. He per- formed for ten years in the provinces with great success, being first basso at Lyons, where he played Peter, in the Star of the North,’’ in a mannerg never equaled, and ke was finally en- gaged at the Grand Opera, Paris, ia 1555, then directed by Crosnier, and for twenty years he sustained the crushing weight of the French repertory. A successor had been found to le- Vasseur, and a worthy one. Belval hada fall, round, rich, mellow basso, of sympathctic quality, and which he used with artistic feel- ing. ‘lhe strength of his lower register was something extraordinary, and he retained this noble voice tillthe end. During his stay atthe Grand Opera be singin ‘‘La Jnive,’* ‘‘tingue- nots,’’ Robert le Diable,“ Tell, and all the -repertoire; and he crested the roles of Gurgantna, in ‘‘Pantagruel,’’ an opera by La- barre, which failed; Soliman, in?“ La Reine de Saba;’’ the Archbishop Turpin, in' Roland a Roncevaux ; Don Pedro, in **L’Africaiae ;’’ und the King, in Hlamlet.

These gapsin hiscompany Mr. Carl Rosa, like nu sensible man, has bastened to il.

Timely conces- sions on both sides, combined with a left- hunded interposHion—or, perhaps, a drawal of interposition—on behalt of Mr. . pleson, have settled difficulties. With Mr. Schott for Lohengrin and Rienzi, Mr. Maas for Khadames and William, Miss Gayford tor Mignon and other characters, Mith, perhaps, Mme. Dolare and Miss Minnie Hauck for such parts as Aida, Elsa, and Carinen, the Carl Rosa London troupe will be a very strong one. The sanguine critic who groups Miss Hauck's Elsa. Aida, and Carmen, us being of equal merit, Will probably have an awakening wnen he has heard the young lady in the two former roles.

On the occasion of the Opening exercises of the second winter season of the Columbia Veterinary College, at NO. 217 East Thirty fourth street, last evening, an address on vivisection, by Professor Thomas H. Hawkins, wus rexd by Professor Bates, in which Professor Hawkins (who was prevented by indisposition from reading his own address) took up the cudgels for the vivisectionists aguainstthe attacks of Mr. Henry Bergh, and iu turn handled that gentleman with no great tenderness. Indeed, it became quite manifest trom the tenor of the address that even if vivi- to be stopped entirely by the law, Professor Ilawkins would at least like to enjov’ the final priv ilege of vivisceting the president of the Society for the Prevention otf Cruelty to Animals, After \igorously denouncing the“ sensational“ and ‘‘exaggerated’’ statements of Mr. Bergh in re- gard to vivisection, Prof. Hawkins placed him celiberately among ‘‘half-witted, tools enthu- stastis, riders of hobbies an’ narrow-minded, uneducated and uncultivated men.“ Prof. liawkins claimed that by | fur the greatest number of Vivisec- tional evperiments at present were made with the use of anwsthetics, and that in but very few cases was pain itselt the object of experiments. As it was necessary and right for man toslay animals in order to exist and prosper, soit was equally right to inflict pain oy death to advance human knowlecge and happiness. Inevery case where the objec: ot vivisection was to benefit man'ind it was, in his opinion, justined. Professor Hawkins asserted that without vivisection the ecience of physiology, with its immense results, would be still almost unborn, andthat no important physiological problem since the time uo! Galen had been solv’ ed He resu the aid of vivisection. He pointed section is at the results achieved through vivisection by Magéndie, who, after killing a number ol dogs —alleged to have been abeut ten thousand—es- tablished the distinction between the motor and the sensory nerves; by Harvey, who in 1616 discovered the circulation of the blood ;by Marshall Hall, who demonstrated important rinciples regarding reflex action, and by Hal- er, whe laid the foundation of the pays iology di the nervous svetem. What wouid now be done about digestion bad not Bassows and Biondlot in 1842 and 1843 experimented on dogs by means of gastric fietulm? most nothing. The speaker, in pursuing this traia of argument, also referred to John Hunter, the tather of modern surgerv; to Chaveau, to Claude Bernard’s mustery of the mystery of diabetes, and to other eminent vivisectionists, to prove what vivisection had already done for science, and how impossible further medical —— would still be without it. He concluded y ex ssing the hope thet the viviscctionists would not go to State prisorg as desire’ by Mr. Bergh, but that onthe contrary Bergh's piace as well as high nh ciety would yet be filled by skilled veterinari- ans and vivisectionists. he was ily applauded by the smail bat intelli- gent a mblage who had come to ! to it, and whoanpearedto be ularly please i with its uent s nciatory thrusts at .

THERE was no riot at Filley’s foundry yesterday, but it would not do to argue that the presence of the police was unne- cessary. The presence of the police at any rate did no harm, and he would be an ex- ceeding reckless person who, after the ex- perience of two years ago, would venture to say that a riot was an impossibility. The one thing that will make a disturbance very improbable is the certainty that any- body who attempts a disturbance will be promptiy arrested and ned. Thus far we have been fortunate in escaping any colll- sion between the strikers and the law, and we trust that the peace may not be broken, but the Police Commissioners will do well to show absolute and unshaken firmuess in every contingency. — — — — — Tur definite intelligence that Sara Bern- this give a sense of relief to all decent lovers of hardt is not coming to country will the drama who have recently had a surfeit of the immorality of members of the dra- The recollections of Fechter’s mistress defying his widow, of Col.

Tur annual report of the Trustees of the Peabody Fund is terribly suggestive. In avastarea of this country, and among a large class of citizens, illiteracy is on the increase, and there is neither the energetic motive to start schools nor the money to maintain them. Not even the redeeming circumstance that nine-tenths of these illiterate citizens vote the Republican ticket should blind us to the damage and loss, the actual danger to the Republic from their continuance in ignorance. The Re- publican party which freed these un- desirable citizens, and which clothed it } } ' | | } them with political af ra 3 hitherto done nothing them (except to steal their money), but we trust that a Democratic Congress will rise above party differences to meet the needs of the time and provide for the education of the iliterate negroes of the Southern States. Punme confidence in the unerring infal- libility of the law is indicated by the quo- tations of gas stock. Two successive de- cisions of the Circuit Court and of the Court of Appcals have wiped out the com- pany, terminated its franchise and turned its property over to a receiver of the court; yet the stock—which, according to the court, does not exist as a security and is only worth its weight in the paper mill—is freely sold ata hundred per cent above par. The United States court is not much better. Last spring a jury, in the case of Curtis Keut, the plaintiff $9,500 damages for the anguish caused by Kent's brutal conduct in compelling him to awarded VS. account for the sale of goods he had pur— chased as Kent’s agent. Of course, as’ soon as the Judge got hold of the case he upset the verdict with a rapidity that would make the head of a cast-iron jury- man swim. The lawis a delightful uncer- tainty, at best, but is it necessary that the uncertainty should be so total and abso- . jute? WHAT DOES IT MEAN? Shares of gas stock fully paid up are for the amount of $50 each. ‘ Every court that has yet passed upon the question, every court and every judge and every decision so far, unite in declaring that the stock is not worth the white paper it is printed upon. The pas works belong to the city. The city has for years. The ablest lawyers in the State are emphatical- | ly of the opinion that the city has both right and law on herside. All the numerous and able lawyers for the city—Mr. John B. Hen- derson, Colonel Phillips, Senator Vest, Mr. Bell and Judge Gottschalk—feel con- ndent that the of the Supreme Court is bound to aifirm the previous decis- had possession decision ions of the other courts. Yet, in spite of all this, there has been a within the last of or 30 per cent, with demand for it at the ex- remarkable rise in gas . stock few weeks—a rise 25 traordinary figure of 8100 or 8103 share!

The United States Circuit Court presented a much livelier scene than common this morn} ing owing to the instructions to be given inthe case of Hathaway etal. vs. the St. Faul Fire and Marine Insurance Company. The case bas been on hand for two or three days and has atracted. considerable attention since it in- volved some very nice questions. In 17577 some oftiicers of the United States Army shipped some household goods from Leiven- worth, Kansas, to Tongue Riveron thé steaner Don Cameron, and took out policies ot inar- ance from the above named company The steamer was in Governmeut service, and cem- manded by Government officers. When oppo- site Sioux City, the Cameron struck a sua, and sunk. Most of the household gods belonging to the officers were dam iged or lest, a'r dthey asked the insurance company to pay them their indemnity. The insurance cempa- ny, however, refused to do anything of the kind, und gave two reasons tor so doing: 1. The Don Cameron was unseaworthy. 2. The Don Can eron wasin Governinent employ and the Government was responsible fur the losses. It was shown by the testimonythat the Don Cameron bad ho competent pilot and that he loss was possibly due to that fact. The instructions of Judge Krekel were main- ly on these two points. He said the insur.ace company bad the opportunity of knowing whether the boat Was unseaworthy or not, nu this could therefore be no defense. The Gov- e:nmentis not acommon carrier, and lawsthat upply to common carriers do not apply tothe Government. The second ebjection to the hey ment ofthe indemnities alsofelltothe ground. nundthe Judge virtually instructed the jury to give 2 verdict in favor of plaintiffs. The amount involved, including interest, is about $13,000. It will most likly be appealed. Motion for Removal. The case of Pitkin vs. Levy cameup in the United States Court this morniug on a motion to be removed to the State Court. Pitkin lives in Scotland county and sued Levy, a merchant of Quincy, and others ter trespass. Levy brought the case tothe United States Circuit Ccurt here. The motion is to remove tons State Court. It wus argued at length this morning by Mr. James Hagerman, of Keokrk, counsel! torthe plaintiff. Mr. Judson, of this citv, is tor the defense.

Pathfinder’s Fate Still Un- known. The Professor Wise’s Son Hntertains Hope. Offered forthe Discovery of A Reward to be the Men. -— — The Woods in Macoupin County to be Searched—The Theories Re- garding the Balloon. * * . The mystery of the ‘‘Pathfinder’’ remains unsolved. Public anxiety and interestin the fate of the balloon and its two occupants are becoming intense. What betel the air-ship and its intrepid navigators after it disappeared over the Fair Grounds is the ques- tion which is asked everywhere. For the first two or three days the public did not become se alarmed for its safety. Some said it was merely an ‘‘advertiseing’’ dodge of Professor Wise, and he would eventually turn up all right. This view ot the matter, however, was doubted. It was urged that Prof. Wise and, at any rate, George Burr, the young mun—bis companion—would not keep their friends in suspense as totheir fate. To this the knowing ones replied, On, yes! but wouldn't they communicate with their friends privately?’’ Such an ovinien, however, does great injustice to the friends-of Mr. Burr. They could not for a moment countenance such a sensational scheme. In fact, their anxiety concerning the popular young teller is mani- fest. But all these ideas have vanished as the days rolled past, and it is generally conceded that some deplo rable accident could alone have prevented the aeronauts from reporting to their fiiends in this city. Twotheoriecs have been formed concerning the perilous trip and its probable termination. At 5:15 exactly the Pathfinder was cut adrift from its moorings, the wind blow ing at the rate of a mile a minute. In. less than twenty minutes it was perceived scudding along under the clouds at Alton, twenty-five miles distant From that point nothing certain is known positively ofthe course Of the aerial sbip. A dispatch from Luporte, Indiana, announced that a balloon passed over that place on Sunday night in the direction of Lake Michigan. Then, as nothings wus heardof the voyageurs, it was suppose that the ‘‘Pathfinder’’ had ENCOUNTERED A STORM over the Lake, and that the balloon and the aeronauts had been engu!phedin its waters. This was one opinion; the other was thatthe balloon descended inthe great pine forests tringing Lake Michigan; that Wise und Burr may have been maimed in the descent jor thut even if they effected a landing safely,they lost themselves inthe intricacies of the fer- spreading pineries, and fartrom humat habi- tation or uiid, must have eventually su icnbed to exhaustion and hunger. But both of these theories were accepted only on the supposition that the balloon ouserved at L»porte was the Pathfinder. The mysterious tragedy which terminated the existence of Pro- fessor Donaldson, and Grinuiwood, the Chicago reporter, suggested tliat a similar fate had be: tallen the bold aerenauts wholett St. Louis last Sunday. htetic ction, however, is not 80 favorable this view of the case. Inthe first place, balloon wus oly partially in- fluted, and only carried sixty pounds of Dullast and the trail rope, which weighed ght, pounds, thus making a total of 110 pounds. But the tlailrope was cut atthe car overthe Fuir Grounds, so that Consequently ons the -ixty pounds Dallast remained. It is contended that the smnll quantity of gas and ballast would not permit the bailoon to con- tinue its voyage long; that it would be a mar- ter Of impossibility forthe pathfinder in this conditionto make a tong aerial trip. iis, therefore, has eaten the impression that whatever accident was in store tor the bardy navigators, it occurred within a short radhbusef St. Louts—gay 100 miles. At Alton Prof. Wise’s air-sbip was seen Afterwards it wus Observed at Bunker Hill, going a little east o1 north. A jitthe bevond Bunker Hill, IN THE VICINITY OF CARLINVILLE, the Pathfinder was again sighted, and this seems to be the last definite and positive intor- mation as to its wherenbouts.

There are few roads and scarce- ly nuy travel in this thiniy populated country. Isitnot probable thattiie aeronauts endeavorcd to effecta land.me here, or indeed that the Dulloou was beyond their control and descend- ed of its own volition, and that some terrible acodent happened to them during the perilous eescent. Muy they not have reached terra firma, if not dead, vet maimed and bruised and beyond the reach of human help? This hypothesis has now taken firm hold of the public mond and the triends of the two missing men. Mr. William E. Barr, president of the St. Luis National Bunk, in which young Burr was a teller, and whoisa brother of the adventur- ous young mun, arrived this morning from New York. A consultation hus been held to- Guy and a reward will in all probability be offered for the discovery of the missing aro- nuuts or thei bodies. The citizens of the various cities in Illinois where the balloon was seen are already on the alert. Gaeat interest is manifested in Mot. Wise and Mr. Burr. Search parties are being organized, and the woods will be thor- oughiv explored. When areward is announced, that no doubt will stimulate the efforts of the peop®. to the al at Car- wis * the fate ot INCIDENTS OF THB ASCENSION, The- following extracts from the Louisiana Mo.) Journal, written by Prof. Downey, the nephew of Prof. Wise, who witnessed the as- cension, will prove interesting: The oid aeronaut knew the danger that was before him, but he firmly refused to remain on terra firmna and jJeave the manipulation of the balioen to younger men. To Mr. Gonter he said, Charley, you can’t ae. ** o Mr. Downey he remarked, ‘‘I will be glad if we can raise the Pathfinder with Mr. Burr; and, as for vou and Burr going, I coull not think of it. You could never bring the balloou Duck. John Wise, Jr., was also retused the privi- lege of taking charge of the Pathfinder, though he Mus anxious to go. To Mr. Burr, who offered to go alone, he said: It only one man can go, 1 will be thre inan;ittwocan go yoru willbe the other one; but | would rather leave you behind. Iam old enough now to die, you are young enough to live many \eurs,’*’ A COOL FELLOW. Mr. Geo. Burr, receiving teller at the St. Louis National Bunk, and son of the president ci that institution, isthe gentleman who ac companied Prof. Wise. He had previously mace two gscersions—one from Indianapolis, Ind., aud one from the very spot the Pathtinier Suiled Sunday. His first voyages were wade under favorable conditions, but notw ithstand ing the great danger that stared him in the tace on Sunday be was as cool and complacent as though boarding a street car. At no time during the inflation of the balloon was he heard to make a boast as to what he would or wouldn't do. Calmly, auietly, unostenta- tiously he wanted until his superior ordered kim into the car; and then he obeyed. Prof. Wise was not provided with an over- coat, and tie stock of provisions was very smmall—not enough to satisfy one man for two days. Just before star. ing Prof. W. privately informed the writer that ne would not ge very tar, but Mr. Burr was anxious to remain ia the mir as long as the balloon had the power to keep him there, and we are afraid that the usually cautious acron@ut yielded to the brave but in discreet young man's earnest solicitation, and that they have both met a violent death. MR. MABLE\Y'S OPINIONS A reporter called on Mr. Thos, Mubley at his clothing emporiam. Mr. Mabley had no faith in the theory that Prof. Wise and Geo. Burr were lost in the wsods about a hundred mfles from St. Louis. He did not countenance that bypethesis at all. Sergeant Weber did not be- lieve init. Besides the weather charts he ex- hibited marked the wind's direction on Sun- day evening, and from them it could be seen that it was blowing with great velocity to the northeast. He wasinclined to the opinion, which he said was shared by these who had studied the meteorological chart, that the Pathfinder baa been watted at a terrific speed across into Canada, and that the balloon de- ascended there. But don't you tnink there is a probabilit ot the Pathfinder having descended in the Liii- noms woods? Nes, there might be a probability. Don't you think it would be as wellto stim- ulate a search in the woods by offering a re- * ara? Well, I had not ught ot that. I thiak I will go down to the Dank and see Mr. Burr. I will be willing to do anything to unravel the mystery that surrounds the fate of tite two men. If thereis any chance of its doing any good a reward will be offered.“ Mr. Mablev had heard nothing and knew nothing of the Pathfinder or its whereabouts. AT THE BANK. Mr. Nickerson, the cashier of the St. Louis National Bank, was called on. He said that Mr. Burr, the pgesident of the bank, had ar rived from New Yask this morning, but that he had not yet come to bis office. Mr. Nickerson inclined to the belief that the Path@fider and its occupants had descended nos far from the city in Nhnois. Hecthougut a {reward would no doubt be offered and the wod@ds searched. Mr. George Burr was a tall, slender young man ot good personal appearance. His moth- er resides at Galveston, Texas) He also has two brethers living, one the president of the bank inwhich he served as teller, and anoth- er located in Arkansas. HOW WISE CAME TO MAKE THE ASCENSION, It may not be remembered that Prof. Wie made his ascent from this city in response to an invitation writ- ten and signed by the following prominent citizens: Henry Overstolz, Mayor, A.J. Smith, Auditor: W. Patrick, Kaward C. Kehr. Eugene T. Freizel; Richard Walsh, Reg ister; Cbas, G. Gonter, John 8. Fitzwiiliam,A. W. Carson, M. D., John D Stephenson; K. I..

2 St. Louis Bost Dispatch Saturday, October 4, 1879, VENIRS or SON NG. Jullness Prevailing, With a Hint of De- moralization in Song Circles. — —ᷣ— — _ Music at a Low Ebb and the Promise by no Means Brilliant. — — What is Talked About by Some People. The week has offered nothing to music lovers, and if our singers propose to do anything bril- liant in the near future they are very reticent About making their intentions known. The amateur Operatic Society, which kept interest in their studies and progress alive for two seasons, appears to Lave given up the battle, and nothing has been indicated to take ite place. The other organizations, actual or tentative, are not prolific of promises in any divection just now. The local musical market may be quoted as dull und declining WANTED—A QUARTET, As the case now stands it is hardly an open question whether part singing in St. Louis has not been relegated to the domain of the Lost Arts, i. c. if this large village, attaining greatness lengitudinally much as an over- grown school-boy attains size, ratherin spite of himself, long und lank and empty, can be said ever to have had any Art to lose. We are not now thinking of the German clubs or Saengerbunds, of which there are several that meet with ex- emplary regularity and claim considerable proficiency. The German singing societies make large account of the mere socialelement, and the music they do on one of their aver- age evenings is saia to be not much more iu quantity than will furnish a seasonable spice to social festivity, or perhaps a pleasing variety of it. But where in the city is there an English-speaking organization that would claim to represent in any good degree what should be the musical culture and ad- vancement of this great city, as adoren pros perous organizations represe at these things in our sister city, Chieago’ The Orpheus Club— Cooper, North, Werner, Higgins—where is that? The Ampbion Clab—Doan, Hazard, Colville, Cunningham—how are we lictt to mourn ite brief though beautitul life, ended all too soon, inthe very bud and promise of its youthful enthusiasm! The Har- monics, the inst rechristening of 1 seciety whose changetul history has had the public attention under various names and guises with not enough coherency of aim and endeavor to propel it successfully from one season into another, is now waiting the filling up of its Associate membership ranks to the requisite one hundred and fitty, before it ulls up its chorus, appoints its leader, and woes into a campaeu, The plan of which is not yet, though by no tault of its managers, de- cided. The Apollo Club, born of the well directed effort of one of our best-known is not yet out of its swaddling-clothes, and the ques- tien is mooted whether it will grow in this un- congenial atmosphere beyond the preportions ot the lusty infant it wus at its birth. return to our topic, *‘Wantea, uartet!

There ure persons who look down contempptuously on ali who are not born witha silver spoon in their mouth Lione! Lawson was above -uca pretentious folly, He was proud, and ceservediy so, of being the architect of his own fortunes, and I really am not prepered to flattertheidie nonsense of the ne plew at the capese ol that independence of churacter which 1 greutiy admired in the uncle. In further paragraphs Mr. Labouchere takes the ground that Mr. Lawson's animosity arose from his own unsparing and merciless denun ciation of the views ot the Daily Telegraph respecting the policy of theGovernment. ‘‘The Duiiy Telegraph, he continues, circulation, and when, dey after day, Edward Levy Lawson spoke of himself as the ‘Nation, and s the nution fawned at the feet of min isters, and imputed unworthy motives to their opponents, it became necessary to explain who the ‘Nation’ really was, and by what caus es the ‘Nation’ was actuated in its persistent abuse of aman of whom, whatever may be his faults, Liberals and Conservatives are alike proud. This has been my mistortune, and Ldward Levy Lawson may rest assured that nothing he can do or say will hinder me from performing to theend whatI believe to be a public duty. ‘you Have 19 part, de tas ti 1 Ke The LABOUCHERE, I should say, comes ot liberal stock. His pa- ternal uncle, Lord Taunton, was a Cabinet Minister, in Lord John Russell's administra tion, nnd his maternal uncle, Mr. Dupre, sat tor Buckinghamshire. lie, himeelf, has represented Windsor and Middlesex in the Liberal interest, and despite his subsequent defeat, has remained staunch to his party. Hence, nothing has pleased him more than to assailthe Daily Telegraph, once the organ ot the Whigs, now the equally firm upholder ef the Tories. Whenthe Russo-Turkish war covered the paper with madicnie in ola fur coat said to be employed in turn by exch of its correspondents; and, from the date of that absurd incident till the encounter in hing William street, he has lost no opportu- nity ot overwhelming it with abuse. Utterly careless of public opinion, living in an atmosphere of libel suits, eccentric in his speech, aman of originalitv in his thoughts, Mr. Labouchere occupies a place apart iu Ku glish journalism, and had never hesitated to defend in the law courts his sometimes very ndvaneed views. (What he thinks about the Daily Telegraph is recorded ta the Truth of September 1s.) ‘*The Daily Telegraph, he says. ‘‘belongs to a family of the name of Levy. The patriarch of the prood is an old man, one Mares Levy, good-natured, not refined, and with about as much of politics as the vender of tried in Vetticoat lane. His son is an editor. He may have been seen every day in the lobby of the House of Commons during the session, buttonholing members, and when he is not thus occupied he is sneaking up official back stairs to pick up scraps of news. lle has a keen cye to business. He worskiped the Liberals so longas they were in power, and has worshipped their sucecssors ever since they have replaeed them. ‘*Servile to Mr. Gladstone, when he was Prime Minister, he overwhelmed him with abuse when nothing wasto be gained by lick ing his boots.

It is as well, however, that the journalistsic ‘we’ should be unveile 1 when itis used to degrade the press, and that the »ubDlic should distinctly understand that when ialf the nation are vilified as traitors, the viii fiers are three rats, one of whom is a worth but unrefined man, another a person whose dream is social recognition, and whose idea of condueting a journal seems to be to puff any Minister who will allow himto crawl up a back stair, andthe third a hired fanatic who leastthe merit ot believing in the startling trash that he writes.’’ Il applied to-day at the office of the Daily Tot egraph for INFORMATION ON THE SUBJECT.

A piteleven fest deep. twenty-six feet wide and thirty-eight feet long had been dug at the edge of a smali cornficid. Rude plank and log seats were arranged around the pit after the fashion of those used Spectators were required to pay a cents. The fight was an- nounced to commence exactly at noon, but there was a delay owing to some unknown cause, and time“ was not called till near two o’¢lock.

At the corners of the pit above were men with heavy oakenclubs to prevent the bear from leaping out of the pit. On two sides were others with long, sharp poles to goad the brutes to action should they be baekwardin their movements. The bear, a shaggy-couted animal, weighing 300 pounds, stood looking toward the topot the pit wist fully for liberty. The bull was a black and white, rather small, but ferocious looking animal, with short horns, and weighed 1, pounds.

Henry A. 6eers. THE MOGUL’S DAUGHTER. [From Chambers) Journal. It was the summer ofthe vear 1651. Shah Jehan, grandson of the mighty Akbar, had been for four-and-twenty years on the throne of the Great Mogul. He was the most mag- nificent and luxurious of all the Moguls. Be- fore the radiant and amazing splendors of his court all the pomp and glory of the greatest monarehs of the West paled into insigniti- cance. He had been known to spend a mil- lion and a Galf sterling upon a birthday festi- val. His royal progresses through his dofnine ions surpassed in grandeur and suptuous dis- play all that even the oriental imagination had conceived. Travelers told with awe of/the acres of land cov- ered with carpets of silk and gold; of the stately pavillions glittering with diamonds and pearis; of the gorgeous tents of crimson velvet embroidered with gold, supported by massive poles forty feet high and stretching over long miles of level country; of the seven resplendent thrones studded with diamonds, rubies, emeralds and pearls; of the world-renowned Peacock Throne, Shah Jehan’s own fanciful invention, so called froma peacock with its tail spread, the natural colors faithfully represented iu sappires, emeralds, rubies and pearls, which formed the chief ornament and design of a mass of diamonds and other precious stones Yet — | | | of athousand other i valued at six millions and a half sterling.

How long ** ‘remained at the court of Shah Jehan is uncertain: but he at apy rate did not leave until he had seen the Mogul’s promises most amply fulfilled, and the company reaping the fruits of these lib- eral concessions. Ihe richest province of India Was thrown open to th ELuglish trad- ers, free of all duties and payments whatso- ever, and from the granting of that extraor- dinary privilege the East India Company dated its first creatstride toward the Weaitl and power Which eventually made it th: ter of the destinies of India.

And most of the historians of India have wholly itwnored the claim of Gabriel Bougchtou to sidered one of the true founders of the British Em— pire in india. A less publie-spirited or far- sighted man would dave used his immense influence over Shah Jehan for his own seltish uggrandizement. It is tothe undying honor oi Gabriel Boughton that he did otherwise. and thereby raised the East India Company froma struggling body of coast traders iuto the richest corporation Of merchants iu the world. It is this fact, we feel, that renders worthy of more detailed narrative than we have ever vet seen allotted to it in any single history, the romantic episode of the surgeon and the Mogul’s dauchter. raf? 1 wu ers, = from be ¢ — — — - — Bound to Spend It. the Pitts Lraph.

But so stricken with remorse was she On beholding the sacred spot,.that she hastened te the Pope to confess her fault, and, as a penance for it, was commanded to build a new cottage in the enclosure, Which she did. This mouastery is one of the few institutions of the kind suffered to remain in Italy. A recent vis- itor Says that What are called cells are comfortable little dwellings, Each is surrounded by a wall, and has its garden twenty feet square. A little piazza, with the trunk of a tree planed and squared for a bench as its only furniture, runs along the side of the house. E ntering the door, you find yourself in a brick-pay ed v estibule, with an empty chamber where a spring of water is flowing into a basin on the ieft, and the living rooms on the right. These consist, of a study just large enough for one person t sit down, a dining and sleeping-room, with the bed built into the wall in the fashion of a sbip’s berth. A small table, two chairs and a cupboard complete the furnishing.

The farm should be not merely à place where men subsist and rear families, says the Connecticut Farmer, in the strictest economy, starving the soul to add a few more aeres tothe fifty or hundred already obtained, and which in reality are net thoroughly cultivated, but a home, speak- ing of plenty, a home rich in attractions, buildings well kept, shade and orna- mental trees, lawns with walks and flowering shrubs. not forgetting the furnishea parlorand library. The newspaper, maga- zine, pictures and music, poets and history should be here. True, the farmer’s home is of necessity a busy place, but it should not be all kitchen and dairw not all scythe and plow, not all an endless = rou- tine of treadmill duties, but where the far- mer and bis wife could find some time each day to mingle with books aud in conversation.

In a late lecture before the New York Agricultural Society, Hon L. E. Lewis said: In my opinion a great amount of butter is spoiled, first, by uncleanliness in manufac- ture; second, by two much acid in the cream: third, by casein in a decomposed state in but- ter; fourth, by too much friction on butter in churning and working. Foul milking stables, impure water, odors from decomposing mat- ter, all affect the quality of the milk. There is over a pound more sugar in 100 pounds of milk than there is of butter. Sugar acid is the tirst sign of decom position in the milk. it destroys the sugar. The second, or lactic acid, acts upon and destroys the oils that give butter its fine aroma. When these two acids ure fully developed, destroying the sugar and aromatic properties, we have what may be called the natural oleomargarine butter. It is scarcely better than the patent article. Cream should be churned while in the first or second sugar acid. The best is made from sweet cream, but that made from sweet cream more susceptible to odors than sour cream butter. State 7 ix Ears of Corn. [From the Country Gentleman. If we take a well-developed cornstalk and dissect it lengthwise, at the axils of many of the central and lower leaves we discover buds cut through longitudinally. Some of these buds generally develop ears of corn. Usuallv these ears are bear the upper buds noticed on the dissected stalk. Ware. the fact has been established that all, a majority of the buds on the cornstalk, 2 * developed into ears. Such being the faet, why do not corn-growers generally pay more attention to the improye- ment of the crop? Evenif they are not dis- posed to give itthe patient attention needed tor this improvement, why not more general- lvadopt the improvement made by others when it will require less loss of time and ex- periment than otherwife? A singular fact noticed in a cornstalk well-grown is that, in- stead of the largest bud of the green stalk developing an ear of corn, it is the smallest on the staik at the time of ripening; and on stalks which bear no ears, the buds will be found to be nearly of equal sive if examined when growth is matured. Some varieties of corn show a greater number of buds to the stalk than others, and such are usually the more preductive. Wheat Culture. [From the Practical Farmer. | The Time for seeding wheat should be reg- ulated by the appearance or non- appearance of the Hession fly. In localities where the fiy does not appear it is well to sow early enough for the plant to miake a good, strong fall growth. The larger and stronger the roots, the more eertain it is to withstand the fiosts of winter. But where the fly has made its appearance, itis far better to risk the winter-killing than the fly. The more rapid the growth of wheat when it comes up, the surer it is of escaping the ravages of thisinsect, The value of guano and kindred ammoritcal fer- tilizers largely depends on their stimulating such rapid growth as to overcome the attacks of the pest. Another way of lessetiing its depredations is to cultivate it once or twice as the blade be- gine to widen. The wheel hoe runs between the rows, and, by stirring the soil, promotes growth, disturbs the ly. and knocks off or destroys great numbers of the larve, which are deposited in little patches on the u per surface of the leaf, where, if undisturbed, they are hatched, and crawl down to the foot of the leaf stock and suck out the juices of the plant. It is well known that wheat on rich ground can withstand the fly much bet- ter than wheat on poor ground. Anything, therefore, wnich adds vigor and strength to the plant, increases its juices, like fertilizers or cultivating with a wheat hoe, will enable Ht the better to withstand the fly. There ew be no doubt. if seed rows were twelve inches apart instead ofeight, and then the wheat hoed in the spring as well as in the fall, about the time of the attack of the second crop of the fly, that the depredations of the fly would be greatly lessened and thecrop of wheat greatly increased. It has been tried and proved. Things Worth Knowing. That fish may be scaled much easier by aipping in boiling water about a minute.

[From the larisian. } . We were traveling through Poland in great haste; the pressure of great business Was hurrying us; and, moreover, that almost flat, * marsby and.unilealthy country which lies be— tween Minsk and the Gulf of Bothnia offers no fascinations to delay the traveler. Villages and hamlets followed each other along the in- terminable roads that were almost similar in nepect, and differed only in the quantity of their houses and cabins, and inthe number or importance of their churches. We confess. to our great shame, that the sight of the post- stations alone gave us a feeling of joy, in which the picturesque side of things bad no hart. But it is only necessary that we should % ina hurry, for « thousand disagreeable acti- dents entargie themselves in each other. If we thought overit much, it would be realized that such accidents always happen, even when we take our own time and travel at our ease. Butthen no one pays any attention to them. | On this occasion. however, a sort of fatali- ty seemed to pursue us, fer, at every alter- nate relay, there yere no post-horses to be found, and we were obliged to wait, some- times an hour, sometimes half a day, for them, Which will expiain the small impar— tance of the cross road we had taken. By the greatest good luck we had made quite a long age in our journey without any impedi- mens“. Some frightful catastrophe is going to happen to us, said I. laughingly, to mv traveling companion, or else dest in; will not be satisfied with its day.“ I had scarcely tinished my sentence when the postilion, turning half round on his seat, pomied outtous withthe end of his v hip the small hamlet we were approaching It is on re!“ he said phiegmiatically. A rose-colored light, in truth, was appar- ent, very bear, inthe lower part of the sky, whose delicate blue —that forget-meenot bite Which is peculisr to nortbern countries —was ‘darkened by the falling night. The some- What irreewlar gut of the hamlet was thrown out against the fire, from which es- aped great whirlwinds of smoke, and th: tin cupola of the Russian Church reflected the flames like a dim mirror. What is the name of that hamlet’? I „asked the postilion, who had just given his horses a hard cut with his whip. **Roudnia’’’ said he. it is the town of Roudnia.’’ Toall Russian and Polish peasants three bouses make a town, provided they are grouped around u chureb. Now Roudnia possessed two churches, ane of Which was a Catholic one. The horses, which were pushed ahead vig- orously, gained the large pole, painted in Ww hite, red and black colors, Which at that time marked the boundaries of all towns, and a functionary in a greasy uniform came to re- ceive the obligatory toll money. He cried outsomething that was unintelligible, and the pole which was placea obliquely across the round rose obliquely toward the sky. This kind of toll-gate, which is very primitive, still exists on many State roads, althouch the Russian Government has bought up the toll-vates which incumbered its great highways. Our postilion hurried on his horses, who asked nothing better than to reach their stable, and we passed at galloping speed through two or three very dirty and abominably-paved stieetse A tumultuous crowd Was bastening in the same direction. toward the place where the tire was burning, and we nearly ran over halfa dozen Jews who were running, holding up their lone coats. and uttering exclamations of distress. **ItisaJew’s house that is on flre, “ said Our postilion to us, Without ceasing to urge on his horses. **How do you know that?’ panion. “It smells of grease!’ replied the fellow, laughing with all his might. The caleche turned suddenly round the cor- ner, at great risk of upsetting, and stopped in front of the post station, It was the wooden house of aJewish butcher that was on fire. opporite to us on the square: the co-religion- ists of the poor devil were removing his fur- niture out of the front windows: the fire had caught in the rear of the house. The facade Was still quite black, but that deep black which precedes combustion, Some puffs of blue smoke filtered bere and there through the roof, presaging the general contlavration which evidently Would soon take place, While my companion was husv seeing that fresh horses were given to us and having our traveling permits signed, Iremamed on the steps atthe post-station, that were raised a few feet above the level of the square, and which overlooked the whole scene, A fire is not a rare occurrence in Poland, ie ry * asked my com- | dresses in a | several occasions walking with a but when a gen 's house is burning the Jews alone run to give help and exert them selves, While the Catholics Watch motionless —perha)s not witheut a certain satisfacti»n— the **ili-gotten’’ goods of the sous of Abra- bam perish. This inhumanity can be explain- ed, if it cannot be excused, by the Israelites’ rapacity, who, on account of their e mimercial abilitv, holdin their hands the greater por- tion of these unfortunate people’s incomes. who are reneruTiy vers) poor, and made still yoorer by the system of usury which is large- y practiced in that country. * he buteber’s wife and children, who were in the center of the syuare, Were rending the air with their shrill cries; same dogs were barking: our unbarnessed horses were shak- ing their bell-covered collars, while the stabicmen were attachinga lot of other bells to the harness of the horses who were to re- place them. All this made an inexpressible noise, principally in sharp notes. 1 stopped my ears With my fingers. Suddenly I saw the Jews who were remov- ing the furniture rush with precipitation out of the windows as well as out of the doors, a «loud of white smoke tilled the room they had just left, While red blaze shone through its further extremity: the inside partition wasin flames. A relative silence fell sudden- ly onali. This moment has always something solemn on it. Hon well it burns,’’ tranquilly said a tall, Cossack soldier at my side, cladin his gray capote. LTlooked at him. He was ealmly smoking a small, short cherry-root pipe, and, swinging his arms, he looked at the fire with undisguised satisfaction; but his unsteady eyes proved that he had taken several glasses of brandy too much. *‘*Misfortune! misfortune!’’ cried the futcher’s voice. He was in the middle of the square, and looked with frightened air at his Jamenting family.

IN A BALLOON. — ee ee > 7 we There have been many thrilling ballooon ad- ventures, and not a few terrible accidents. One of the most exciting adventures was that of Mr. La Mountain, the aeronaut, and Mr. John A. Haddock, who accompanied him. They started from Watertown; New York, in September, 1859, in the tine balloon Atlan- tic, and shot up some three thousand feet al- most in straight line. Then a northeast cur- rent caught it, and away thev drove at the vate ok a mile in two minutes, rising as they When they got to an altitude of three miles anda half, they began to move east- wurdly. Clouds now hid the earth entirel; from view, and the sun went down. ‘In that trackloss waste of air they could neither tell their direction nor the rate at which they were going. Gradually, however, they went. ; „ raft, stick by stick, descended:to the surfaee of the clouds, and floated on them as a beat does on water, lit up by the clear twilight. La Mountain then opened the valve,and as the balloon descended through the clouds, it became impenetrably dark. by the time they got clear of the clouds they found themselves not more than 500 feet fromthe ground, and, as far as they could distinguish in the darkues-, over a Vast un- breken forest. They knew there were trees, not water below, us, in the stillness, they heard some sand they threw out rattle on the leaves. After this. they made six different attempts toland at in‘ervals often or tifteen minutes, rising each time. Ou the third de- scent they came down on the surface of a small lake, set in the woods. This would not do, end, throwing out ballast,thevrose again. Onafourth attempt they came down bya very large tree, and Laid hold of the branches to try and make out where they were. But they could make out nothing but a tall Moun- tain before them. Once more they rose, and onthe sixth at- tempt caughtatree again. It was aspruce, and this settledthe question. They were far up in the forests of Upper Canadas Making lust their balloon to the tree, they pre- pared to pass the night as best they could, and slept quite soundly till the rain began to fail in torrents. Davlight found them thoroughly soaked and perplexed, but not disheartened. They must rise aguin, and they threw out the remaining ballast and everything they could spare, and once more,shot up. As the zun's rays bent on the wet balloon, the gas expanded. andthey shot up like a rocket. La Mountain again touched the valve, and they came nearer the surface. And what a view! As far as the eye could reach stretched one unbroken sea of tree-tops. There Was now no alternative. They must decend. Discharging the gas, the Atlantic settied down between two tall spruce trees, and caught in the limbs about eight feet from the vround. They leaped down, and faced the situation. After consulting, they con- cluded to strike southeast so as to reach the Ottawa river, and bidding adieu to the At lantic, they started. The woods were wet and -Wwampy, and their progress was slow. Af last. after walking about a mile, they reached u creek, and to their joy, toumda rude marten- trap. With a rude clearing. This gave them hope, and they plodded on, throwing off their wet stockings and drawers, Which impeded their progress.

JI cy were Within three miles of a clearing, but this they did not Know; and al- though they heard a gun twice, were unable to make their shouts beard, or to make out the exact direetion. So they kept on down the creek, and entered, around which they paddled for tive miles. and reaching an out- let, entered it, but after a hard dans work found themselves just where they bad aband- oned their balloon. Another miserable night, the rain pouring in torrents, found them at daybreak on the verge of despair; but oerving themselves for a last struggle, they again set out, and reached aiapid. Around this they had to drag their and so Weak were ther that they fell repeatedly. Then they put the raft together bclow the rapid, and kept on to another lake, gathering wild cranberries as their only resource against starvation. All day they paddled along the lake in search of an outlet, but found none. Another awful show- ering, dreary nient, anda gray, hazy, com- fortiess morning. They were dying. starving, perisbing bv inches. Weak aad exhausted as thre vy were, their only hope was in heeping on in search of the stream into which the lake emptied; but they mistook a small stream for it, and had eto turn back to the lake heavy- hearted enough. Mr. Haddock was about to give up in de- epair, and La Mountain was trying to cheer him up, when they heard a gun once more. They hallooed as loud as their feeb'e strength would allow, but no answer came. But what was better than an answer Was a wreath of smoke that curled over the trees on the ether side of the lake, and, straining their eves, they made out a cause on the shore. They were now frantic: with new-boru strength they paddled across and found the canoe turned bottom up. Under it were agun, two coats anda wild duck. This La Mountain seized and began to pluck, eager to cat it raw, While Haddock struck into the wood to look for the men, Ina minute or two La Mountain saw an Indian boy approach and, uddréssing him in French, was led to the shanty, where he found Haddock seated relating bis adventures to Mr. Angus Camer— on, who owned the shanty, and was there directivg the cutting of lumber for Gumour K Co., of: Ottawa. Food lay plenty before them, but only a little was given them at first till their stomachs grew stronger and they were ublé to bear a meal. They now found out where they were—more than a hundred and fifty miles from Ottawa, so that, but for the accidental presence of this party, they would have perished within a couple of days.

The St. Louis and San Francisco Rail - road Enters upon a Magnificent ‘Project. — — Work to be Commenced on the Line to New Mexico Immediately. A week Or so ago the PosT-DISPATCH gave an account of the scheme by which Jay Gould ex- pects to secure a continental line ot railroad reaching nom New York City to San Francisco, and passing by St. Louis. It was shown that he now had nothing to do towards the accom- plishment of THIS VAST PROJECT except the securing of an Eastern Outlet. owned the Union Pacific, the St. Louis, Kansas City and Northern and the Wabash. These make an unbroken line from Ogden to Toledo. A line is already contemplated from Toledo to Buffalo, and from Buffalo the Erie goes straight to the Atlantic Coast. Gould has been to Europe to see about the Erie, and it will not surprise the best informed men if he has control of it inside of three months. Then the work will have been done and the greatest railroad corporation in the world will have been formed. St. Louis will have no reason to complain, as she will occupy the most important position on this great route of traveland traffic, that will extend from one ocean tothe other. But St. Louisisto have another road tothe Pacitiec Coast. The announcement can be made — ABSOLUTE ASSURANCE. Nor is it to come from Tom Scott's Texas Pa- cific, butfrom the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad, which is emphatically a home insti- tution, It now extends from St. Louis to Vinita, in the Indian Territory, and also has a line running to Oswego, Kansas, and will soon have an extension of thatiine to Wichita, in the same State. This nus been one of the most successful roads in the country, its business for the past * having increased fully thirty percent. It was originally.known asthe Atlantic and Pacific, under which name it went into liquidation in 1876. That part of the road in Missouri was purehasea by the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad Company, an entirely new organiza. tion, which teok hold with much vigor. That portion of the road running from the Missouri line to Vinita was not sold, but has beea oper- ated underalease. This part of the roadis ; | ’ | | | i | | ; | , Sociates mean known as the Central Division.’’ The St. Louis and San Francisco Railread Company now comes with A PROPOSITION to consolidate. It submits to the holders of bonds ofthe Atlantic and Pacific Railroad Company, knowh as ‘‘first mortgage railroad land erant bonds, Central Division, and the holders of stock in the same corporation known as Central Division stock, u propo- sition embracing the following conditions The holders of said bonds, without delay, to cause the mortgage given to secure the said bonds to be foreclosed and the property sold by the trustees in the mortgag® under the power given the St. Louis wand San Francisco Kail road Company to purchase all the bonds and all stock cf the said Central Division, provided the price shall not be above par, the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad Company to obtain allthe privileges and advantages in the way of land grunts give nthe Atlantic an: lg Com pany under its original charter. It will % remembered that the land grants tothe Atlantic and Pacific were very large, and were considered alply sufficient to build the road to New Mexico, the original intention be ing to finally . EXTEND THE LINE TO THE PACIFIC has been done in struction of the road westward to maintain the title tothe lands. Now the St. Louis and Sun Francisco Company proposes to take up the work and complete it. This company now ownes and operates the following number ot miles of road: N Miles. COAST. Enough only tne con- St. Louts to Vinita Pierce City to Oswego Joplin to Girard Uswego to Witchita (under construction). The proposition to purchase the bonds, stock and land grant privileges Wi the Atlantic and Pacific has already been submitted and has becn signed by a considerable majority of those concerned. A simple majority is cuflicient to insure the consummation of the sale, sothat it may be regarded as a toregone conclusion that the old eentral division ot ‘tue K. '. will soon pass into the hands of the St. Louis and San Francisco. In order to obtd@in accurate and reliable iu Imation on this subject a reporter called on JUDGE JAMES BAKER, Vice-President of the St. Louis and San Fran- yesterday afternoon, and asked him for as he might be willing to give the cisco, such public. »In the first place, want to contradict the roed has been leased son, Topeka and Santa Fe. Nothing of this soft is true and nothing of the kind is even'so much as thougnt of by our people. We are very wel satisfied with our business and our prospects, and we PbO NOT NEED TO LEASE tothe Santa he or any other company. We think we know how to run our road without the help of any other company. This report is gotten up for a stock jobbing speculation, and nothing elec. There is not one word of truth in it. Judge, purchase the Central Division fucts said Judge Baker, I report that our the Atcni- absurd by what do you propose to do after you of the A. and “We propose to continue the road.’ ‘*You think the saleissureto take piace’’’ It is as good assettied. Nearly all the bond.- holders have signed the agreement.“ ‘*‘Wheredo you propose to build co?“ Me first propose to build six handred miles of road, and that will take us into New Mex- ico.’’ Are vou ready to commence ne consummate the proposed ment with the bondholders ot the A. shall be able to GO RIGHT AHEAD with the work; we will have plenty to build 600 miles of new road.’’ After vou get to New Mexico, then propose to do?“ the road work?’ arrange- & l'. we of money what do you Me hope to connect with the Southern Pa 800 have 5165 about we that 1 Louis and San That road now nas miles completed, and 365 miles complete; 80 miles of the line between St. Fiauncisco is already built. If we bund 600 more that will make 1,765 miles. It will be an easy matter to discover some plan of tilling up the pup. Nou really expect then that you are to construct a line to the Pacific coast?“ Me do expect to do that very thing, and if no bud lack happens to us, we shall have men ut work on the road’ to New Mexico inside of three months. This is certainly EMVPHATIC FNOUGH anybody, Judge Baker and his as business, anl it now begins to look as though St. Louis was to be one of the termini of the second great u. tilroad leading from the Mississippi Valley to the Pacific coast. One of the greatest objections the peopiec of this city have had to urge against the Texus Pacifi@is that its eastern terminus is in Texas, and not in St. Louis. In such an event there would be no special advantage de- rived by this city from a southern route to the Pacific, since other cities would have the same javors that Would come to this. The attention of the whole country will no doubt now be drawn to the grand caterprise to be carvied out by the St.Louis and San Fran- cisco and Southern Pacific. IN TWO YEARS reads wil offer an unbroken line from hereto San Francisco through a region rich with mineral as well as agricultural re- The route will bea much bettér one Central Pacifie or cific. going to satisfy these two sources, than that of the Union and that of the Northern Pacific, as it will never be subject to the hindrances and delays incident to a cold climate.But most of all tor congratu— lution is the fact that the proposed new route to tie Pacific will be tostered by men friendly to St. BDouis. The St. Louis and San Francisco Kailroad is emphatically a St. Louis railroa, and whatever it does will be to the advantage oltst. Louis. — GRIM DOCUMENTS. Accumulared Death Warrants wenty-five Vears. Hidden away in one of the many pigeon-holes of the Cierk’s afiice of the Criminal Court, and halt covered with dust, a package of deep black-bor dered and edged papers were found by a POST-DISPATCH reporter this morning. Biack ribbons and crape, fading with age, peeped out from the tolds here and there, and a closer inspection showed the package to be death warrants. There were nineteen warrants in ail, and from the big lack seals down to the last entry on the back bythe Marshal, which announced that the eulprit had atoned legally tor the crime of umder. ; A twenty years’ cd inthe package, tory that told only been the record ot crime was contain butit wasa charitable his- how the defendants had SENTENCED TO DEATH. on a certain day by a certain judge, and how lle and his friends now practically. and — —— sas of “wa * — PMs Yost Bisprcy. Satardag October l, 1880. t time 1 — had exe- 3 d the law’s decree, but never a word as to the vietim of the laws, his identity, how he died, whether death came sudden or by slow degrees,and not one whit of the circumstances surrounding tne deed as adduced by a court of inquiry and twelve men. All that wasabiank. Of the nineteen, thi:teen bear the ‘date of execution, two of a commutation of sentence to imprisonment, one for natural life, the other for ten years, andthe remaining four savor with an uncer- tuinty as to whether their principals were hanged, incarcerated for life, pardoned by executive clemency, or escaped through culp- able tnegligence. At any rate, a baker’s dozen were strangled, and with that evil and unlucky number this article will deal. Don the 11th of November, 1859, Joseph W. Thornton was hanged. Thornton did not de- serve death. Many people declare and praise his good traits and ignore his faults. He was most respectably connected in this city, and his case is one of the few on _ rec- ord where a man with wealthy and influential triends has died on ascaffold. He was inthe employ of a business man who dis- covered some error or defaication in his ac- counts and discharged bim without delav. Thornton went to Memphis and secured a situ- ation there. His late employer learned the tact that be was prospering and wrote his employers a page of his history and he was speedily discharged. From there he went to Vicksburg, New Orleans and a half dozen other cities, found employment, but only to be as re lentlessly maligned as at Mem- phis. He returned to St. Louis and, meeting the man on Chestnut street who had ruined him, SHOT miu DOWN. lis trial and conviction followed, and then speedily came his execution. Samuel Brust was hanged on the last day ot August, 1860. Neither he nor the man he murdered moved outside of the lower circles, and the crime is devoid ot interest. W ili Wilson suffered the death penalty on the 27th of June, 1862; Michael Keras, the 23d of January, 1863: Valentine Hanser, the 15th of 1 — 1864; Peter Christman at 11:25 o’clock, December 6, 1567, and William Ed- .warda, alias William Roach, July 23, 1866. Then came a lapse of seven years during which there were no hangings and murder was becoming almost as — As it is to-day. A man could shoot another down with pectect immunity. but finally Patrick W’Shea killed bis wife, and he, not being as lucky as Kring, Nugent, Lewis, ‘Baber, Erb, hotofsky Ward, was convicted of murder in the first degree. The story of his execution is tersely toidin the following entry found uponthe back of his death warrant: .Executed this writ in St. Louis county this, the 9th day of April, 1875, by hanging the within named Patrick O'Shea by the neck until he was dead. Fee, $25. [Signed] JOHN A. WATSON, . County Marshal, It ig presumed that the Marshal got his fee; at any rate O'Shea stretched hemp, and the werld was relieved of a human monster. On the 22nd of the following Uctober, Henry Brown plunged through the trap. On the 18th of February, 1876, four months afterwards, there was a triple hanging, that of the Italians, Dominico Domina, Antonio Catta- lano and Bastiano Lombardo, who ambushed and assassinated an old orange peddler, for some faneied insult, in the north- ern part of the city. The next and last execution was that of William Wieners, on the Ist of ruary, 1878, who so cruelly murdered Little Mack, the bar ten ler at the Theatre Comique. His trial, conviction and death is of too recent date to set forth at pres ent. Since that period no desth-warrants have been stamped after the fashion of Patrick O'’shea’s, aud, while the jaitlis filing up with murderers, the grim gallows within easy dis- tanec is fast falling into decay.
