recovery 1t was his intention to remain at

Mail RObberies-ImpOrtant Arrests-Ten
Mail Bags Riflcd of Remittances.

A few days ago we published full details
OF the detection of a delinquent Clerk in
our city Post Office. Since then another
Government official has been detected in the
robbery of the mails. 1t appears that in
formation was recently dispatched to COL
North, Special Agent O. the Post Office
Department, to the effect that series of ex-
tensive robberies had lately been perpet2at-
ed in the vicinity Of Eim,"a, and he had paid
a visit TO that place during the past week
The result of his Investigations is the arrest
in this city OF Lewis II. Stone, who was
yesterday committed to the care OF tie Z. S.
Marshal.
Stone had been in the employ of the e.
mira contractor, who carries the mails to
and from the Erie Railroad cars. and the
opportunity thus given him to secrcte mail
bags, he seemed to have improved, or rath-
er misimproved to its utmost Ten mail
bags, rifled of their contents, were found Sc
creted in vault near the barn where Stone
stabbed his hors; and we are informed there
is little doubt Of his guilt New lor.l.

SINGULAR DEcAp1rArIoN. - The Buffalo
Democracy relates the following, which it
says is reliable, and can be attested by hun
dreds Of eye-witnesses
"Scmc few years since, we should think
about the year 1910, a criminal was executed
at the village of Niagara, Upper Canada, ly-
ing at the mouth of the Niagara River. The
execution was not public, and the manner of
it was by attaching the halter to the shorter
limb of a long lever, having for its fulcrum a
post, firmly fixed in the ground, precisely after
the fashion OF country well sweep. AT the
signal, the cord sustaining the heavily-weighted
lever was cut, the beam descended, the halter
flew out like a whip-lash, the criminals head
remaining in the moose and the body dropped,
resting q moment upon its feet, ere it fell over
to the ground. The integuments, arteries veins
and spinal cord, all had been as neatly severed
as if done with Enife When we consider
the vast strength o: the muscles OF the neck,
and the seemingly inadequate force cxerted
upon them, it appears wonderful that the de-
capitation should have been so neatly, and so
instantaneously effected. Yet as We have
said, there were hundreds, perhaps thousands,
who saw the thing done. We doubt if SINH
lar occurrence is recorded in any of the surgi-
cal or anatomical works "

Alright between two beers.

The latest breach of the peace occurred
in Plymouth township, in this county, last
Tuesday. Miss Harriet Brown, daughter
of James Brown, had went in the evening
before to visit neighbor, Mr. VIM Castor,
and the next morning, as she was returning
home alone, pet deer, three years old, be-
longing to Mr.. Castor, leaped over the high
fence enclosing his territory, and pursued
her. He overlook her about midway be-
tween Mr.. Casters and her fathers house.
and at once attacked her-he struck her on
the side with sufficient force to cut with his
horn through her underclothing, and drew
blood
AS Miss Brown fell she courageously took
the deer by the horns, and clung to him,
sometimes being dragged on the ground, and
at others regaining her feet-the animal all
the time striking and cutting her with his
feet. The deer finding himself foiled by the
courage of the brave girl, attempted anoth-
er mode OF attack, and endoavored to push
her against some trees and thus shake her
off from her hold on his horns. But it was
no go-she held ON but in the course Of
the struggle the deer dragged Miss Brown
near to fence at point where there was
large stack Of straw placed against it Oh
the other side the poor girl, Icing unable
to make herself heard in her cries for help,
and finding herself much weakened from ef-
fort and loss Of blood, cast aLont her for
some source of escape, and looked upon the
straw stack as the only means of safe re-
treat-and maneuycring so as to get the
deer near up to the fence, let 60 of his horns
with her right hand, and tried tle "gouge
game putting her thumb into his eve,
gave it hard push; this so hurt and fright
ened the beast that as quick as lightning he
bounded back some fifteen feet from her.
and before he had recovered from his fright
sufficiently to renew the attack, his fair an
tagonist had gained the top OF the fence
and from thence the top Of the stack, COM
pletely foiling her adversary. From her
high position she succeeded in attracting
the attention of a neighbor who came TO her
relief.
The fight lasted about an hour, and at its
close Miss Browns clothes were nearly all
torn off her, and she was cut in almost ev-
cry part Of her body by the heels of the ami
NAL
We think this lady has courage and adj
dress enough to take any circumstance of
life by the horns, and could share in the ad-
ventures of Crockett - Mansfield (Ohio)
Banner.

care off last evening at the Winslow
House. and we have no hesitation in saving
that it was one Of the most recherche cele-
blat;ons that has ever taken place in this
Territory; excell;ng as it did in point of
numbers, and interests excited, the most
san ,uine expectations OF is projectors. AL
though in contemplation but short time,
the attendance was extremely large, so much
so, that ecter filling all the tables spread
in the immense dining hall Of the Winslow
House, large numbers were unable to find
seas. Among tie rest we noticed large
delegation in attendance from our neighbor
ing city, ST. Anthony.
A brilliant and numerous galaxy of the
"fairer seX," were also in attendance, and
never have we seen them appear more re-
sl,lcnGently lovely, or their briglt smiles
more radiant with happiness than they were
upon this occasion.
Owing to the lateness of the hour at
which the company adjourned, we are una
bic to lay before our readers this morning
the full particulars, bat must content our
selves with saying that the toasts were APP
propriate 70 the occasion--the responses ex-
tremely felctous and well conceived, aboun
ding with wit and sparkling with mrth; and
that everything conspired to make this an
occasion long to be remembered by the par
Elephants
The address Of welcome wcs made by
Judge SHERBuRNE of our city, and the
blessing was invoked by Rev. Mr.. SEccoNBE,
Of st. Anthony. After which the company
proceeded to the work of demolition of the
good things with which the table was spread
Then followed toasts, speeches, &C., an &C
count Of which we shall lay before our read

Daring Ingenuity.

The Sandusky Register gives the follow
ing account of the rescue of nine persons
from a sail boat, which became fast in the
ice of the bay:
Every effort was made by those on the
dock to afford relief, but all seemed hope
less /; for the scarcely knitted ice resisted
alike oars, forks and small boats, and no
advance could be made towards the suffer
ers. Finally, Captain Albert Dibble i'm
PEELED to effort by tho knowledge that his
brother was perishing within sound of his
voice, attempted rescue in the following
ingenious and daring manner A small
hunting skiif aud pine plank was brought
Placing the plank upon the tender ice, he
walked its length-drawing the skiff, in
which was placed coil Of rope with one
end attached to the dock-after him.
Reaching the plank's end, he stepped into
the boat, and, drawing the plank forward
showed it out ahead of the skiff and again
getting upon it dragged the little boat for
ward twelve or fifteen feet. BY a series of
these relays the brave fellow finally reached
the sail craft in which were the now almost
frozen nine men, The rope attached to the
dock was made fast 10 the bows or Jne
ohln, ana was nUw i'll The hands of those on
shore. One man at time was permitted
10 enter the frail boat, and a second coil of
rope being made fast to the Sportsman,
those Oh the dock pulled the skiff in. Cap
tain Daniel Dibble was the first one landed
and hearty shout welcomed him. By
the two ropes the little skiff-angel of mcr-
CIV that it was-moved backward and for
ward until the whole nine were rescued from

With the receipt of this handsome sum
from tine steamers, not farthing was ex-
pended for their benefit or accommodation.
The levee, where this tax On the boats should
have been expended, has been left to take
care Of itself, and has remained throughout
the season in w1etchcd condition. One
half the amount received would have kept
the levee in good condition, and made it a
credit rather than @ disgrace to the city
We trust more creditable policy will he

The Commerce OF st. Paul.

The. statistics presented below, which
have been handed us by w. II. SnLIMAN,
Esq, will give the distant reader some idea
Of che amount of business done at St. Paul
during the season of navigation. The
number of steamboat arrivals during the
past season, opening the middle of April
and closing the 81 h of November, was
about two hundred and fifty. The amount
OF wharfage collected by the city was $3.50
An idea may be formed Of the comparative
amount of business done each month by
taking the amount of receipts FOR such pc
RODS. The ordinance requiring the pay
ment of wharfage went effect Oh the 9th
of April. From that time

A2E~ The Cincinnati Times of the 4th inst,
says:
"a man by the name of Alonzo Giles, resid-
ing on Sixth street, near the Hamilton, and
Dayton railroad depot, suddenly recovered his
speech last evening. For many years he has
been afflicted with the scrofula in the throat,
and since 1913 has been completely dumb
Last evening he was tsken with a severe cough
ing. which resulted in severe vomiting. Dur
ing this he threw up a solid substance, when
his wife asked him he was any better. Yes
said he I'm much BETTER being the first words
he had spoken since le48. Both himself and
wife were overjoyed at the return of his speech.
He contincesto talk though his voice is hoarse
and rough.
