GEN. GRANT. The Pntient in a Very Feeble Condition, Suffering Severely from Pain in His Throat. Mt. McGregor. N. Y., June 18. General Grant's condition this rooming was not changed from that of yesterday. Dr. Sands arrived at Mount MacGregor at about 11.30 a. m., and at noon he and Dr. Douglas were wi;h General Grant. Seven hours refreshing sleep, the usual taking of liquid food, the absence of the usual pain, the quiet of the body and no un usual mental strain, constituted the record for Gen. Grant front 9 o'clock Wednesday night to 5 o’clock this afternoon. The Gen eral has, within a week, expressed to near friends hit own assurance that he is con stantly growing weaker and more exhausted. He was, last week, frankly told that he was failing and that at the end he would probably pass away peacefully of heart failure. Dr. Sands returned from New York this evening. Dr. Newman and Jesse Grant arrived this afternoon. During tile evening Gen. Grant wrote the following words npott a card, which he handed to Dr. Newman: “It is just a week today since I have spoken. My suffering is continuous. I)rs. Sands and Douglass say my ailment is improving.” At 9 o’clock the General retired. Dr. Doiigla.-s was called at 12.15 to dress the patient’s throat. On leaving he said the General felt better. Niagara Fallr, N. Y., June 18.

The New .Ministry Not a Complete Tri umph lor Lord Randolph Chmehill, Although His Piineipsl Demands Hare Keen Conreded—I banks Irom the Queeo to sir Stafford Noithcote. London, June 18. The Standard hears that Parnell and sev eral follows will go to America in the autumn to raise funds for the campaign. It is believed that at their last meeting the liberal ministers decided to offer no factious opposition to the conservatives except in re gard to the budget which Gladstone will oppose if unsatisfactory. The Times in an editorial says The new cabinet is a compromise between rebuilding a Disraeli ministry and an infusion of new blood demanded by Lord Randolph Churchill. It is not a complete triumph for Lord Ran dolph although his principal demands have been conceded. Misgivings are widely enter tained lest h:s rashness and inexperience in cite injury in India at a critical moment, but he must work in harmony with Earl Dufferin and the council of India. L >rd Randolph probably insisted that a renewal of the co ercion aot be abandoned. Referring to Chamberlain’s charges that 30,000 soldiers are maintained in Ireland to support British rule, the Times asks him if he will be ready to acquiesce if Ireland wish es to separate when the restraining force is withdrawn and warns him against trifling for party purposes with the gravest imperial in terests. Chamberlain, president of the board of trade, speaking in support of his brother’s candidature for Pailiament, said: Lord Ran dolph Churchill had his foot on Lord Salis hurv’s neck. He (Chamberlain) liked Lord Randolph, however, because he had bor rowed his political baggage from the radicals Chamberlain dwelt upon the antagonism be tween the two policies of Lord Salisbury and Lord Randolph Churchill in regard to Ireland and Egypt, and concluded ••Hie time his arrived to reform that altogether and irriiat ing anachronism kno n as Dublin Castle.” Gladstone delivered up to the Queen to day the seals of the office of prime minister. Unexpected developments to day render it quite possible, in tbe opinion of many liber als, that Gladstone, however much he may be disinclined, will be compelled to return to office It is reported that the Marquis of Salisbury demanded from the retiring ministry a more comprehensive promise of support than they were prepared to give. It is believed by many liberals also, that the visit, to-day. ot Gladstone to the Queen at Windsor Castle had sj^me connection with the subject ot a return to office. The conservatives,howevrt1, have not the least doubt but that the Marquis of Salisbury will accept office. York was visited this forenoon by an earthquake shock which lasted several sec onds and caused great alarm. In accordance with the decision of meeting of Marquis of Salisbury and other conserva tives, Sir Stafford Northeote has been ap pointed first lord of the treasury,*'ith a peer age, the premiership remaining in the hands ot Lord Salisbury. Arthur Balfam will be president of local government board without a seat in the cabinet. Hon. Edward Stan hope will be vice president of council. The queen has sent Sir Stafford Northeote an autograph letter thanking him for his high services and offering him an earldom, he will assume the title of Earl of Iddesleigh and Viscount St. Cyres. SHOCKING DISASTER. Explosion in si^English Colliery—Twen ty-Two Bodies Recovered—One Hun dred and Twenty-Two Still in the Mine. London, June 18. A terrible explosion took place today in the Pendleton colliery near Manchester. Sixty persons have been rescued alive. Seven dead bodies have been recovered, and 100 miners are still below. There is only a faint hope that any of those will be saved. The cages in which the volunteers were, proceeding down to the bottom ot the pit, got stuck in the shaft and it was two hours be fore the party could get to work exploring the mine for the missing men. Those who were rescued state that when the explosion occurred they fled to the bottom of the shaft and that they are ignorant of the fate of their comrades. Another account of the colliery explosion near Manchester, says it occurred in the Clifton colliery; that there were 350 men at work at the time that 120 were taken out, but 230 are still imprisoned, and that it is feared that the most if not all will peri-h. A despatch from Manchester states that up to 2 30 this afternoon, 18 dead bodies have been recovered from the Pendlebury colliery. A despatch from Manchester says that 100 additional men have been rescued from the mine. Probably 100 have been killed. The latest despatch from Manchester states that 204 miners have been recovered alive from the Pendlebury colliery; that 22 bodies have been taken out and that 122 men are still unaccounted for. THE AUSTRIAN STRIKES. Four Thousand People Rioting in Hrunn —Anti-Jewi.h Troubles. Hrunn, Jane 18 The strikers yesterday wrecked the fac tories. The mob numbered 4000 women and men. and the soldiers were unable to cope with them until civilians arrived on the scene. After the disturbance was quelled a deputation of workmen waited upon the burgomaster, wbo granted their demands pending the action of the government. Later, several thousand pejsons again collected and further rioting ensued. Two arrests were made. The workmen have resolved to con tinue the strike and demand still shorter hours. It is believed that the trouble is partly due to the anti-semitic feeling, the majority of the manufacturers being Jews. The strike of workmen to compel a de crease in the number of hours of labor is spreading. Factories are closing daily, owing to the hands joining the strikers. The uten say they will insist on their ultimatioo deliv ered to the employers that ten hours shall constitute a day’s work. The military is under arms and will prevent the renewal of the rioting of the other night when the fac tories were wrecked and several of the sol diers and a number of people were badly in jured. Cholera deport. Madrid. June 18. The official report of Cholera in 8pain yesterday is as follows: Valencia, city, new cases 15, deaths 6; Valencia, provice, new cases 169, deaths 75; Marcia, city, new cases 94 deaths 90; in vil •ages adjacent to the city of Murcia, new cases 721. deaths 556; elsewhere in the pros- inee of Marcia, new cases 64, deaths 28; Castellan de La Plana province, new cases 108, deaths 45 A me etirg tradesmen was held, to-day. for the purpe.se of giving expression to the indignation of merchants at the course ot the 1 government in making public proclamation j that the cholera had appeared in Madrid. A deputation will he sent to King Alfonso to explain to hint the very serious injury done to the trade of the capital hy the’official declaration that cholera existed there. The merchants will unite in a demonstration against what they consider to be an extraor dinary act of the government in officially de claring the presence of cholera in Madrid. disaster at sea. ■4 French 4.unboat Founders With the Loss of One Hundred and Twenty* Seven Lives.

Every one on board. 127 per sons in all, perished. FROM WASHINGTON. Letter from Secietnry Whitney to Attor ney General Garland. Concerning the United States Steamer Dolphin. Washington, June 18. An official letter from Secretary Whitney, concerning the Dolphin, was sent to Attorney General Garland, today, lie encloses a copy of the report of the hoard appointed bv him on the 17th of April, last, to examine and re port on the dispatch boat Dolphin, and says “I desire you to examine this report a id ad vise me, what, upon law applicable to this case, is my duty in tin* premises, facts and circumstances connected with til is examina tion, ami matters with reference to which 1 desire advice, are briefly as follows Imme diately alter mv accession to this office, papers were presented to me me tor mv signature, accepting the Dolphin in behalf ot the government. Upon cursory examination of the papers made tor the pur pose ol determining to what extent I had re sponsibility in the matter, my aftemion was attracted to the singular looseness of the con tract. There was a notable ahs nee of effect ive stipulations, as it seems to me. There was, however, one positive requirement in tended to insure certain mmnimim power, which provided that on her trial trip “the collective indicated horse power developed by said engines under the pres -ribed condi tions shall he 2300, and maintained success fully for six consecutive hours, provided that in case of failure of the development of this power the vessel shall be accepted if it can be showd to the satisfaction of the naval advisory board and secretary nf the navy that this failure was due neither to workmanshi nor material. This trial hav ing been had in Long Island Sound, under conditions tavorahle in main, she had yet failed of meeting this requirement, having developed but 2118 horse power for six hours. The naval advisory board, in refer ring to this, had stated that they were ol the opinion that this deficiency was not to defec tive workmanship nor materials, but with better coal and a well trained engineer force these results will be exceeded. For the pur pose of varifying the prediction and to satisfy myself, as appeared to be my duty, I wrote on the 20lh of March, suggesting to the con tractor another trial. At ihe place of trial had been fixed in Long Island Sound by per sons authorized under the contract to pre scribe the condition of the trial, and as the terms were not more severe than those ex acted by other nations, I expected an immed iate favorable reply to this reasonable re quest. It was acceded to on the fifth of May, over six weeks having elapsed. In the meanwhile an examination of the dealings of the department with the contractor and es pecially the manner in which reserved pay ments had been surrendered to the contractor induced me to select three competent person* to make a thorough examination for the purpose of my advisement and as to, (1) whether the contract had been pron erly performed (2) as to the defects in the vessel; (3' as to the responsibility of the de fects observed, if any. The result of that examination, made with great patience and intelligence, is herewith submitted for your consideration. I now desire an examination of the contract and law by you, that I may be advised, whether representing the gov ernment, I have on my hands thst which is in the nature of a bad bargain or broken con tract. The report demonstrate* that the gov ernment lias not got in the Dolphin what Congress stipulated for and what should have been obtained. There are three general subjects to be considered by the board; 1st speed, 2nd strength. 3d general workmanship. Keferring to tiie speed of the Dolphin, Sec retary Whitney calls attention to the fact that the appropriation was for the construc tion of a despatch vessel, to have a sea speed of 15 knots. It has been shown, he says, that for a sea speed of 15 knots, smooth water speed must be,over a measured distance, from 17 to lb knots. Therefore, it was the just expectation ot Congress that the pro jected despatch vessel would show at least 174 knots on her trial. Her highest speed for six hours was 15 knots, and the has not at any time developed and maintained for six hours the 2300 horse power required by the contract. The trials indicated, the sec retary says, that instead ot being a despatch boat of 15 knots, she is capable of but 12 or 13 knots, sea speed. In regard to her p iwer the trials have shown ttiat she is not of re quisite stiffness, this being indicated by her vibration when under way. and by the effect of an unequal load, as was seen when a small quantity ot pig iron was loaded on her for ward, causing her machinery to get out of line and her journal* to heat. Her last two trials, according to the report, were accom pitched only with a stream of water pouring on her journals during the trips. These facts seem to the board lo indicate a great structural weakness, to what extent only sufficient sea trial will demonstrate. The third, as to the general character of workmanship, is criti cised by the board very strongly. The whole matter comes to the end that this government is not receiving what in expected and what it had a right to expect from the construction of this vessel. The question which I desired answered ;a whether the department has in the matter had a bargain simply which is be tween the contracting parties it must stand to, or has it a broken contract, entitling it to insist on something better? In connection with this question I desire to be advised what is the effect of the circumstance that the construction has been supervised by gov ernment officials, the material pasted at suffi cient, and the workmanship similarly ap proved from time to time during the con struction. The contract provides for this supervision and inspection, and I am advised that it ha* taken plmce as the work baa pro gressed. If the supervision and inspection that ban been had is a bar, so that the depart ment cannot go hack and examine the work passed and approved by its inspectors, and hy the naval advisory hoard, that endajhe consideration of the matter. Ifitionhla bar. how far is contractor responsible for the speed. Strength and general workmanship of the vessel, and what are the remedies of the department tinder the circumstances? ALLEGED BRIBERY. Investigating the t'hsrges Against Mem* bcrs nf the Illinois Legislature. Shrinofikld. Ills., June 18. In the House yesterday, Collins, chairman of the investigating committee, laid before that organisation an affidavit signed by K. H. I'ubbs, superintendent of the Western Union Telegraph company at Chicago, to the effect that during the month, of February of last year, he had been called upon at the Leland Hotel in thia citv by Representative Bsker of 'tonltrie county, and that the latter offered to kill the telegraph bill for 92500; that of thia sum 9500 was to be given Baker for himself and the remainder for distribution among other parties. The reading of the document occasioned quite a sensation among the com mittee men. and a summons was at once sent to Baker, who soon made hi* api.earanoe, and being sworn in, said he knew Tubbs and had talked with him upon several occasion*. He explicitly denied that he ha at any time made any proposition to Mr. Tubbs, or any one else ot the chars cter referred to. The committee adjourned for the dav. PULLED THE PLUG.

$xitg §tnutbtt ffimuri. Innate' Friday Honing, Jom 19. The attempt to consolidate the democratic and greenback parties in Iowa is meeting with ranch op position on both sides, and will probably cause a permanent split in tbe latter or ganization. Tbe attempt to exempt soldiers and sailors from the provision of tbe state civil service law in Massachusetts has failed. Tbe senate reiosed by a tie vote to pass the bill, and, unless a motion to reconsider succeeds, it is dead beyond hope. The resignation of Meade, the Kuklux postmaster at Hazleburst, Mississippi, has not yet reached Washington. At least there has been no announcement of the fact, though it is safe to bet that there will lie as soon as the document arrives. This administrition always «diuek!es when it gets out of a hole. It is alleged positively tnat on the very day that Minister Keiley started for Vienna a dispatch reached Washington from the Austrian Foreign office, vigorously pro testing against his appointment. If this is true, and if Mr. Bayard permitted Keiley to go abroad in the lace of such a protect, he was guilty of a blunder which is greater if anything, than his selection ol Mr. Keiley in the first place. The Court of Appeal ot New York has decided that the section of the oleomarga rine law which prohibits the manufacture or sale of that suslance as “an article ot food'' is unconstitutional. This decision is placed on the broad ground that any man has a right to invent, manulaeture, and sell any substitute for an existing ar ticle It assumes that the article is not injurious or sold under the false pretense of being something else, and ihe law in quest ion snakes no distinction in these re spects. A dispatch states that a (ire at Kizil Arvat lias destroyed all the material lor the Trans-Caucasion Railway. If the destruction ot material has been so com plete as this, the Russian programme will be seriously delayed, und perhaps the necessity of deferring the prosecution of the railway beyond Askabad may render the St. Petersburg Government the more willing to make a more temporary agree ment with (England concerning the Af ghan frontier. A delay of even a lew mon'hs at such a time may involve Im portant modifications of policy. The Postmaster-General has profited by Commissioner Black's failure to got Miss Sweet to resign by asking her to do so. Wanting the place of Miss Cristie, post mistriss at Nyack, for a democrat, Colonel Vilas did not ask the incumbent to get out, hut put her out summarily, on the ground that when she was an assistant in the office she knew ot a train! which she said nothing about. This accusation is even worse than it appears on the surface, for it is a blow at the reputation of Miss Cristie's dead lather, as well as at her own. Miss Cristie has promptly de nied this charge, and we presume the matter will be investigated fuither. Possibly here is a chance for investors whose faith in alleged marvellous Inven tions still survives their Keeley motor ex perience. An (Englishman, James Dickie, of lamds, has sunt to an exhibition of ship models in I,ondon, the model of a steamship which he asserts will cross the Atlantic and return in six days. She is called the “Aqua-aerial, or Wave Ship,” and Instead of cleaving the water, is to glide over the surface. It is promised, also, that peculiar and novel devices will prevent her rolling, and that narrowness ot beam not being essential to secure •peed, there will be practically no limit to the extent of the accommodations. It is a virulent type of cholera that is raging in Spain, and the mortality is al ready great. Thus tar. however; there have not been many deaths outside of a narrow strip ol country on the eastern sea board. That there is a panic there is shown by the flight of 30.000 people from Murcia, a city of less than one hundred thousand inhabitants, where there were 3!) deaths on Monday. The latest accounts seem to indicate that the disease is spread ing along the coast to the south ward more rapidly than in any other direction. Quar antine authorities in this country should bit vigilant with regard to arrivals from any Spanish port, and should not lorget that the disease may be brought to Cuba by some of the vessels that ply between that island and the mother country^ A Source of Infection. The dealer* in hay and straw propose, ■ays the N. V Times, to begin active meas ures agtinst the steamship companies for their neglect to destroy the straw bedding Used by the steerage passengers unless the companies mend their wavs very soon. A leading hay dealer said Wednesday “The public does nut know is danger from ibis source. When the Pilot Commissioners lor bade the future throwing ol the atraw in the harbor, the companies invoaed the aid of licensed vendor* to help them get rid of the bedding. It was turned out on the piers and these vendor* were either made a present ot It or bought it at a low price They now take U to Hoboken and Jersey City, were it ia rebaled and sold tn crockery dealers and other* for packing purposes at 50 cent* per 100 pound*. This hurls our trade, a* merchantable straw readily bring* TO cents. It is an olleMe against the customs law*, as foreign atraw ia dutiable at gj per ton. and the quantity thus used is 500 or 400 bales, or about 100 tons weekly. The great danger, however, i* from disease. We are taking all aorta of precautions against the spread of cholera, and here, right under our noses, the stud hicir must easly cat rie» infection and which is more likely to have die me genus within it is not only permitted to be landed to the amount of 100 tons weekly, but is scat tered broadcast all over the country, carrying possible pestilence with it. It ia nine it waa stopped, and we propose to bring some pres sure to bear upon the steamship companies to compel them to burn the atufl up. We hare secured the co-operation of the Jersey health authorities, and if tbii does not answer we ahadl appeal to Washington.” Tuifni* Jofux RtrcDuru tb* Bc aoitv'Sciui ro> Biuirno tbb Sc* Ttuitnu.

Treasurer Jordan. Bat that offl. iai repudiate, it, and no one now can be found to concede that the report put afloat with such particularity bad any more than a rery slim foundation. If it had a foundation the disclosure has scattered it so that only a few pieces can be found. This i, what one gets as the result of his inquiries at the Treasury Department Without legisla tion by Congress, the secretary can do no more than increase the number of banks for keeping the public fundi. The sub-treasuries Wiilgstand till the law is changed, unless in deed, the plan of substituting an opinion from the Attorney General, as in the case of the whiskey tax, for a law of Congress is to be resorted to. At present there is no evi-j d-nce that such a course is to be attempted, I or that there is pending any serious change of policy. General News.

The receipts of the Chicago post-office have increased from 9301.235 in 1877 to 91.765,000 up to May 30 of the present fiscal year The latter figure is a falling off since 1883 of nearly 9100,000, owing to the reduc tion of letter postage.

Home* without flowers are like days without sunshine, wanting in that warmth brightness and cheerfolness, that nothing else can substitute. To the meet elabor ate and costly marsion, as well as to the lowliest cottage.flowers add their charm, and bring joy to their inmates. Whatever j the order of architecture, or the style of 1 furniture may be, plants and flowers are in keeping anywhere, evincing good taste. and imparting an air of refinement. The rapid increase in the use of flowers for va rious decorative purposes, is already ex erring a decided influence in prom uiog and educating a taste for their cultivatin I and .study, hastening the coming ol the 1 day when a good housekeeper’s education will not be considered complete without a fair knowledge of practical horticulture, j This does not necessarily require a minute study of botany, any mole than go'id cooking necessitates the study of chemis try, although some knowledge of the ele mentary principles of these fundamental sciences will in either case be found ol great value, ami add eo siderably to the interest in its practical work. Wealth and great expenditure are not I necessary to insure success in gardening. It is with the raising of plants as with rearing children, they quickly respond to the love and tender care bestowed upon returning these a thousand told in the jov and happiness they impart, and reflecting their purity and beauty upon our own minds ami souls. The season for sowing and planting is already considerably advanced, yet there arc many kinds of flowers that, il sown or planted now, will produce beautiful ef fects during the greater part of the sum mer and autumn, in fact throughout many of the Northern States it is generally not safe to risk tender plants out doors before the first of June. In commencing gardening opearations of any kind, the ail but universal mistake Is to be carried out well and thoroughly therefore it cannot be too strongly im pressed upon the minds of the readers that the smallest (lower bed, a single plant even, properly cared for, is more satis factory, and gives more enjoyment than an acre full ot neglected and disorderly ones. Besides smaller beds, except in very ex tensive grounds or when seen from a dis tance produce always a more pleasing effect than iaigo ones. Another important point to he consid ered is that not all plants will thrive under the same treatment, and that to succeed il is necessary to understand ilie nature, the likes ami dislikes of each class ot plants. It is therefore nest to begin with a few kinds only, increasing their number grad ually as one becomes familiar with their character and needs. To the real lover of flowers, the mixed border constitutes the truest kind of gar dening. Here each plant is grown for it own individual beauty a n! development; hundreds of species and varieties may tie grown in companionship, the only re gard in their arrangement being the plac ing nf the tallest growing kinds in tne rear or background, and the lowest along the edge, or in I he case of very wide beds to plant the taller along the center, slop ing off towards the margins according to their heignts. In the mixed border every day presents new delights and charming surprises. It undergoes constant changes; with the fading of one kind of flowers the buds of others untold new blossoms; the interest and enjoyment never ceases front the opening of the first Crocus and Snowdrop to the tailing ot the last Chrys anthemum. In the formal of ribbon bed, so much in vogue at present, the character and ap pearance ol the individual plants are of little Import, they become sacrificed for the general or collective effect. Such a flower bed resembles a regiment of sol diers on parade, pioducing a grand, mas ive impression, but in which the individ ual man disappears. For public grounds and in extensive lawns superb effects may be produced with this style of gardening, but in small enclosures carelul judgment has to be exercised in their use adapta tion to surroundings is of as much impor tance in locating and planting a flower bed, as in the selection of lurniture in keeping with the color of the wall paper and carpet. The more limited in extent the grounds are, the more simplicity should be ob served in the shape of the beds, and never should more than one or two kinds of flowers be planted in the same bed. It is here where single specimen plants may be used to excellent advantage,— Good Housekeeping. In Tlie Sick Room. Never stand at the foot of a sick bed and survey the patient. All figures loom large 11 fevered eyes, and by tlie side of the bed are only partially seen, and do not annoy with the sense ol too much pres ence. I)o not open tlie door very slowly, for then the attention is strained, specu lating as to who the next comer can pos si ly be after all this preparation and with such cautious approach. Low but clear tones, quiet but sure movements,and rapid, rather than slow, are a great relief to anv patient who is blessed with a practical nurse. Whispering is fortune. Silence is best until you can discuss matters in an other nx>m but if you speak, speak out and make no mysteries about anything. In severe illness the nurse must watch her patient steadily, but not seem to be look ing In convalescence it frequently soothes the invalid to have the nurse seated at the window, apparently lookiug out. This frees the faculties from the tension that the sense of being watched usually gives. [Hall's Journal of Health. How Playiug-CunlH are Made.

Continued trom yesterday.) He took a hoe trom Joseph Bemis, from Kinsev’s enrrier shop a call skin, he broke into the larder of Carroll's Tavern where Mr Colter now lives and drank as much wine as he could. At Capt. Upbam’s Tavern be wailed until the dancing was in full blast and took six cakes and some cheese. From Leonard Kinlej’s he purloined a leather band, which carried s-me uari of the machinery hid it in bis •v s joi and made a belly band for his master's horse. At the time of the murder. Jack s master re-ided in the house near Aunt Kaly’s Bronx, which be erected from the timbers i f the "Old Engli-h Church and it was afterward remembered that while the pro ce-sion, bearing with them ihe unlortu nate girl to her final resting place, was passing Mr Blackman's house. Jack was observed leaning on the fence in front ol the house viewing the luneral cortege, to ail appearances with the utmost indiffer ence. On Thuisday, tne uay or me tuurucr Jack had been sent by his master to hoe corn in a held which belonged to Mr. Blackman, near the scene ol the awful occurrence. Another laborer was also hoeing in an adjoining field and whenever they came near enough they conversed together. At about seven o’clock Jack was seen to leave his work, and giving some paltry exeuse to go in the direction of the lane leading to the Tabot farm house. No consequence was attached to this incident at the time, and it was only afterwards that it was considered as a link in the chain of circumstantial evi dence with which Jack was surrouhded. On Sunday night, July 1, as we have before stated, Jack left the house of his employer and under cover of night, start ed with the intention of walking to Prov idence then to New York; where it was probably his intention to go aboard some vessel, and so out of the coOntry. The first night he passed in the woods in Sharon. The next day he resumed his march, ant' stopped at a farm-house in search of food’. The owner asked, him several searching questions and finally ended by telling him that he believed him to be the Canton murderer. On another occasion Jack overheard a conversation as he was passing along the street, in which his own pame was distinctly audible. One entire dajt he passed in a swamp fearing to show himself on the public highway. On the fourth of July he approached l'aunton. and heard at a distance the salvos of artillery that ushered in that day. Guided by the noise, he approached “the Green.” and procuring some refreshment returned to the woods. Hungry and thoroughly exhausted he found himsell in Attleboro, and in that town, near Ba1 com’s Tavern, was overtaken and cap tured. Up to the time of Jack's leaving Can ton in the night no suspicion had been at tached to him; but as soon as it was known that he had gone, he was considered as guilty as though he had already been tried. Measures were at once taken to capture him. The people of the town divided into parties, and trav eled in a.I directions. Mr Jesse Daven port, a near neighbor of the Talbots, drove directly into Boston, and spent Monday and Tuesday in walking through the streets vi-iting the wharves anti ship ping. Mr. Leban Lewis rode to Stough ton Corner. Bridgewater, Randolph, Braintree, and Milton. Others went to Dedham and the towns to the westward. The successful party went in the direc* tion of Providence and on the 6th of July, captured the object of their search. Bat tus had his preliminary examination be tore Squire Elijah Crane on the 7th of July at Carrol’s Tavern and was then taken to Dedham jail by Sheriff Quque Kolloek having confessed the crime. On the 25th of Sept., he was tried at Dedham. To the indictment he plead •■Guilty.” A motion was made by James Sullivan, Esq the Attorney General, that sentence of death be passed on him; and the Chief Justice, after a solemn, affecting and impressive address, ordered “that he be taken to the gaol from whence he came, anil from thence to the place of ex ecution, and there be hanged by the necx until he be dead.” And added, “may the God Almighty have mercy on your soul.” Previous to the execution while con fined in jail, he sent to the Rev. Zachariah Howard, who had visited him a number of times, and tried to comfort him with ghost ly advice, the following note “John Battus desires an interest in your public and private prayers, that God would be mercifully pleased to give him to see his sins, and enlighten his under standing, and prepare him tor the ap proaching hour of death and afterwards receive his never dying soul to those bright and blessed mansions where Christ has gone to prepare a place for all those who love and serve him." On the eighth of November, after a prayer by the Rev.Mr. Graflon.of Newton, the prisoner ascended the scaffold, erected on the great common in Dedham, shook hands with a fellow prisoner, bowed to the assembled multitude, aud was launched into eternity. He was buried as was the custom, temporarily beneath the callows. Jack sold his body to a surgeon. Dr. Miller of Franklin but after the execu tion. parties from Canton bid claim to it, and in endeavoring to enforce their claim the contending parlies swayed back and forth over the coffin, creating a most scan dalous scene. A tight was only prevented by some persons offering to treat the crowd A broadside signed “An Englishman living in Canton" soon afterward appear ed. containing three poems.—The Trag edy The Sentence.and An Innovation to Mercy.—It was embellished with a rough wood cut of the execution. Tne Sheriffs standing with a drawn sword, on hisihead is a cooked hat. while near him Is the dangling body of Ualtus. In 1805 the town ot Canton appointed a committee to indemnify those who went in pursuit of Battus and the sum of $46.50 whs divided among sixteen persons, whose names appeared on an order book. Such is the history of the murderer. Battus was the third person executed in Norfolk County, Fairbanks and Mason preceeding him. Mrs. Talbot, the widow of David kept the property, paid all the bills and resided in the house near the pond until her death which occurred Jan 7th, 1830. My moth er has olten told me of a visit she made to Mrs. Talbot in her girlhood and the press ing invitation she gave the young ladies and herself to take a goblet of wine. There was nothing to do but to wait until an opportunity when Mrs. Talbot’s back was turned, when the ladies turned the wine through the cracks in the floor. The house was standing in 1831 and appears on the map oi Canton of that date but no trace of the celler even can be seen today. The site of it was visited by the Canton Historical Society on Fast Day in 1718.— [Canton (Mass.) Journal. Baldness. If you are troubled with a diseased scalp, if your hair is falling out, if it is weak and thin, or if you have become bakl, your hair may be restored to its original healthful condition and color by the use of Hall's Hair Benewer. This efficient remedy combines the most desirable qual ities of the best preparations for the hair, without the use of any objection able ingredient. Mrs. Hunsberry, Sit Franklin ave., Brooklyn, If. Y., after a severe attack of erysipelas in the head, lost her hair so rapidly that she soon became quite bald. One bottle of HalPs Hair Be newer produced a new growth, as soft, brown, and thick, as in youth. Gray Hairs are honorable, when they are associated with advanced age, but to be prematurely gray is unpleasant, to say the least. If you cannot renew your youth, you may, at least, attain the appearance of it, by the use of HalFs Hair Renewer. Randolph W. Farley, Nashua, N. H., quite a young man, whose hair had become gray, like that of-a very aged person, applied HalFs Hair Renewer, and now bis locks are a beautiful brown, as in youth. He says: The effects, in mv ease, from the use of nail’s Hair Renewer arc truly marvelous.” Mrs. E. Elliott, Gleuville, TV. Va., says: “One bottle of Hall’s Hair Kcnewer re stored my hair to its youthful color.” II A I I ,C VECETABLE flMLL O SICILIAN Hair Renewer is not a dye, nor does it contaiu any coloring matter whatever. It restores the hair to its original color by exciting the scalp to a natural, healthful action, and is, also, an efficient remedy in cases of scalp disease. Walter Burnham, AI. D., Lowell, Mass., writes: Having, by accident, seen Hall’s Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer used for restoring the hair, where inveterate eruptions had resisted various kinds of treatment, I found that not only was the hair restored to its natural beauty, but also the disease of the scalp was completely cured. I have since recommended the Renewer, fre quently. in similar cases, and always with the same success.” Tbe beauty ami vigor of the hair is easily maintained by the u-e of Hall's Hair Iie newer. Mrs. Susan II. Scott, Stoddard, X. II.-, writes: ‘‘The Renewer will cer tainly restore gray hair to its original color. I have used it ten years, and it has given perfect satisfaction. It keeps my hair in splendid condition.” Mrs. E. M. Ritteuhouse, Humboldt, Kansas, writes: ■‘I have used Hall's Hair Renewer for years. It keeps the scalp clean and healthy, the hair dark and glossy, and pro duces a new and vigorous growth.” J. B. Duncan, Laredo, Texas, writes: For n number of year* my hair had been growing thinner, until at last I became quite bald. The use of two bottles of Hall’s Vegetable Sicilian Hair Renewer has restored to my head a fine, healthy growth of hair.” H. Erriekson, 4 Chest nut. st., Charlestown, Mass., writes: Wien I commenced the use of Hall’s Hair Renewer, the top of my head was perfectly bare. I am now using my fourth bottle, and my head is covered with a nice growth of new hair.” Hall’s Hair Renewer, PREPARED BY K. P. HALL CO., Nashua, X. II., P. S. A. For Sale by all Druggists.
