Horrors of Civil War.

The following extract 70 private letter, dated
Buenos Ayers, Jan. l, 1853, and published in the
New York Courier and Enquirer, gives terrible
insight into the horrors of civil war; .z
"I have just received yours, per o. ]. Hayes
and am sorry to see that you write in rather a
complaining tone in consequence of my long alb
sence. l, too, am very sorry that have not
got out of this unfortunate country month ago,
for now we are in the midst of all the horrors Of
bloody civil war. The city has been beseiged
by land for about six months by some five or six
thousand cut-throats, led by men who were, du-
ring the time of Rosas, his most vile instruments.
All supplies of meat and vegetables are of course
cut off from outside, and the enemy have posses
sion Of the suburbs of the city. You can conse-
quently imagine the amount of suffering that ex-
lists among the poorer classes.
"Ail business has been at a stand still for some
time past; Custom House closed, and nothing at
all done. The system of warfare thus far has
been the guerilla The inside party cut the throats
of their prisoners, and the outsiders tear some a.
part by tying each leg to horse, and driving them
in different directions. They also roast some alive
over slow fire, and commit other barbarities too
horrible to enumerate. AS it was expected in the
commencement of the affair that they would enter
and sack the city, foreigners of every nation pub
licly met and armed themselves. This has prob
ably the cause of their not entering but they are

MYSTERIOUS DIscoyERY OF HUMAN SKELE-
roNs.-Last week, workmen employed in tearing
down the house No. l04 Market street, next door
to the east corner of franklin place, broke into
a vault in the cellar, the existence of which was
unknown to the late occupants of the premises.
At first it was supposed to be an old sink; but on
examining it, considerable quantity of pig iron
was discovered lying at the bottom of the well.-
This was removed, and after it was taken out,
two human skeletons were found, which had been
under the iron. No clue whatever has yet been
found to develope this mystery The house which
was torn down, was occupied, in 1893, by jacob
Richie, tobacconist; in 1874, by John Richie; and
in 1900, by James Poultney, iron-monger The
adjoining house on the west, was occupied, in
1898, by Zekicl King, merchant, and in 1900,
and for some years afterwards, by James Hum
phrey, printer In addition to the house torn
down on High street, one upon Franklin Place,
formerly occupied as Hocker's tavern, was demol-
ished. 1t was founded upon the site of the house
once occupied by DIR. Frankln as his private res
idence. The fact of the iren being found upon
the skeletons gives some basis for the idea that
the transaction was effected while Poultney occu.
pied the premises.-P Philadelphia Gds.

Some years ago Mr.. R., an American, having
dicovered some new process by which he thought
money could be made in England, concluded to
try his fortune in London. Very soon after bis
arrival, he presented himself at the Office of a
leading journal, and requested to see the editor.
He was desired to give his name and business,
which he did, and an answer was speedily brought
that the editor was engaged. By dint of great
urgency, he at last succeeded in making his way
to the room of the sub-editor, and having never
found any difficulty in obtaining a hearing from
gentlemen of the press, in his own country, where
the time of an editor is almost public property he
proceeded at once to explain his discovery, sup
posing that it would be received as favor, and
duly glorifed, as matter of course, in the days
impression. Before he had fairly made his begin
ming, the sub editor cut him short, politely but
firmly, by saying that he had no time to spare, and
that he presumed his visitors object was to have
his discovery noticed. @
"Why, yes sir, should like"
cit cant be done sir, witiaut trouble; write
whatever you like, it shall go in; of course you
leave your name and address. The clerk in the
office will arrange with you as to terms. Good
morning, sir"
Finding himself bowed out, he went back to
the office, where he was furnished with pen, ink,
and paper, sat down, and in the course of some
twenty minutes produced an editorial paragraph OF
perhaps twice that number of lines. This he
handed to the clerk, merely asking whether it
would appear the next day.
ssCertainly, sir. Editorial %
eyes, sir, in the editorial columns"
q 1presume you would not wish it in the largest
type used on the paper y m -. II
"Why, yes, should prefer that"
"In that case, sir, the charge will be ten gum
cas-; if in smaller type, fve."
Mr.. R. took his manuscript and withdrew,

sand that is, never to even seem to have any good
