The LAST OF BRADpocK's MEN-The Iancae-
ter (Ohio) Gazette announces the death, at tina,
place, the 18th inst. of Samuel Jenkins, coored
man, aged one hundred and. fifteen gears. He was
born slave, the property of Captain Broadwater
in Fairfax county, Virginia. in 1884. He drove
his masters provision wagon the Allegheny
Mountains in the memorable campaign Of Gen.
Braddock, and remained in service a. the Big
Meadows until its close. He was held as a slave
until about 40 years ago. when, upon the death OF
his master, he was purchased by gentleman who
brought him to the State of Ohio, and thus released
him from bondage Soon after his liberation he set
tied in Lancaster, where he continued to reside I'M
Ill his death. Although his bodily frame had given
way he retained his mental faculties to the last.
1t is thought that he was the last man living, Ell
ther white or colored, who served in Braddock's
expedition, in 1855, against the French and Indi-
ans and which terminated on the banks Of .hs
Monongahcla, II miles above Pittsbu1g, so fatally
to the British General and his troops, and so much
to the military reputation Of Gen. Washington then
young man.

A You've GoLD SEEKER.--One Of the conducl
tors on the Lowell Railroad, few days since,
says the Boston Times, observed young lad who
appeared 10 be unaccompanied by any acquaintance,
and who, when asked for his ticket, replied that he
had none, and was without money. From his youth
and other circumstances, the conductor suspected
him to be runaway, and on making known his
suspicion to the boy, he confessed he had run away
from his friends among the Shakers at Enfield, N
III. 1t appeared that he managed by slyly skulk4
ing from one TO another to completely evade the
notice Of three or four conductors between Enfield
and Lowell, thus riding free more than hundred
miles. On being Intercepted as TO his object in
running away, he said he was bound for Califor-
MIA The conductor got friend to take him to re-
turn TO his friends, bot his temporary guardian. on
looking for him the following morning, found ne
bad risen early and given him the slip. This
age is g years. Let him alone for
smart chance among the gold hunters.

AN INTERESTING INcIDENT-'The delegation Of
Chippewa chiefs and warriors were shown around
the Capitol on Friday by their ntelligentagent and
interpreter, Major j. B. Marell. They frequently
expressed their wonder and admiration at the ex-
tent and grandeur Of the building, and tho splendid
paintings strongly attracted their attention. From
the Capitol they proceeded to the Statue of WASH
ington, followed by crowd of ladies and gentle
