FATAL Acc1DENT.-The Cincinnati Ga
zete says-"In Wednesdays edition we
mentioned the death of Mrs. Henderson,
from taking poison by mistake for EPSON
salts and We have now to chronicle 'anoth-
er distressing event in connection with the
melancholy affair. Night before last, Miss
Leggit, a dress-maker, residing on the cor
ner Of Seventh and Linn streets in compa-
ny with another young lady, sat up, as is
the custom, with Mrs. Henderson's corpse,
and about midnight the two repaired to the
temple of Cloacina, when the floor gave
way, precipitating Miss L., who was large
and heavy, into the vault beneath, a distance
of some fifty feet. Her companion sue
ceeded in escaping by rushing from the out
house al the first cracking Of the floor
The alarm was oon given, and a numder
o persons came to the spot, and three hours
were spent in an attempt to rescue the lady:
but owing to the foulness of the air, no one
could enter the vault. When finally got
out Of the vault she was quite dead-ihe
indications being that she had broken her
neck by the fall. She was an estimable
young lady, and the calamity has cast a
heavy shadow upon the hearts of her many
friends.

The Comet.

Was due here on Saturday last. We
don't know that any one hereabouts saw
it as it passed, or even got a glimpse Of its
tail. Some people who were anticipating
q general smash up'' on that day, will
have to 60 to work setting their house to
rights again, and wait for the next one, ten
to twenty years hence-soon as they will
be ready to leave. In 1882 it was calcu-
lated that a little before midnight on the
10Th of October, q comet would cross the
plane in which the earth revolves, near the
point where our globe itself would be on
the morning of the sotb Of November, and
had the Comet been delayed q month by
any disturbance a collision with its nebu-
losity would have taken plalce. The alarm
was then chiefly confined to the P~arisians,
who seem to be addicted to such fears, and il
was in Paris the existing alarm about the
expected comet first prevailed. A similar
alarm existed ia France in 1913, and one
of the philosophers of that country was en-
ployed by the Government to allay the
fears of the people. Some weakminded
purchased places in Paradise at high prices
We have not heard Of any n that LEFT
with the comet, though we heard of a mum
Der that, were "packing up" and getting

Great DefalcatiOn.
ENLIGHTENMENT OF $55O,0O0.

The o. S. Journal, of Saturday, brings
US the startling intelligence that a deficit
has been discovered in the State Treasury
of FIVE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND
DOLLARS. Mr.. Gibson has resigned his of
flee, and the Governor has appointed A. P.
Stone, of Columbus, to fill the vacancy
Mr.. Gibson states that the deficit existed
when he came into the office, and that it is
the result of the defalcstion of the former
Treasurer, John G. Breslin.
William Dennison has been appointed
by the Governor to act in conjunction with
the Auditor or one of his clerks, in making
a full examination into the affair.
The July interests, Notwithstanding this
deficit will be paid.
We are informed from another source,
that VIM. Gibson is a brother-in-law of Mr..
Breslin, and concealed the fact of the detail
cation in order 10 give the latter an oppor-
tunity to replace the money. If this is
true, although the motives of Mr.. Gibson
were doubtless good, it is to be regretted
that he should have allowed his sympathy
for his brother in-law to prevent him from
earlier exposure of the deficit. We remem-
Der some talk during Mr.. Breslin's admin
istration about a deficit of S225,OOO, which
was then attributed, if we mistake not, to
bank failures.
Mr.. Breslin is at present in Kansas, and
the discovery was made during the tempo
rary absence of Mr.. Gibson in Minnesota,
by Alfred Kelley; and others who had
access TO the books of the office,

Remembrance Of Rlooav v,,.rd


kemenisCence of Bloody Island.
A correspondent Of the Cincinnati Ga
sette writing from St. Louis, gives the fol-
lowing review of the duel between Col.
Benton, and the unfortunate Lucss.
aWalking over Bloody Island this morn-
ing, we were reminded Of the fatal conb,ts
which gave it its s~anguinary name, and of
that mournful tragedy in which Thomas H.
Benton played SC conspicuous a part. An
acquaintance who protested 10 know all
about that famous duel, told US that young
Lucas, brother of one of the present bank
ing firm of Messrs. Lucas & Simmonds, be-
came involved in a bitter political contro-
versy with Benton, both being candidates
for the same flee, when the latter challen-
ged the former. They fought with pistols
of course, and Lucas vas shot in the arm.
Immediately after the hostile meeting, Ben
ton heard that Lucas had made threats
against him, which would be fulfilled as
soon as he (Lucas) had recovered from his
wounds; whereupon, Benton demanded of
his adversary an explanation. Lucas re-
piled that he wished nothing more to do
with Benton, and that he was not respon-
sible for street rumors. Benton immedi-
ately sent him q second challenge, and be-
fore Lucas had become fairly eonvalescent,
they met, and at the first fire Lucas fell,
shot through the heart. The conduct of
Benton and his second on this occasion, was
as represented, extraordinary. The latter,
the moment before the order to fire was Civ
en-, commanded Lucas to stand as he ought
to, or he would blow his brains out; and
Benton kept his eye steadily upon his an
tagonist, whom, it is said, he had declared
he would kill before going to the field; laid
his pistol upon the ground; took up some
sand in his hand; resumed his wepon never
moving his gaze from the face Of his foe
and fired at the word.
"These circumstances are new to us, and
may be to our readers, and seem SO oppo-
sed to the laws of the duello, that we give
them without youching for their correct
ness"

The Virginia Emisrant Scheme.


The Richmond Examiner said sometime
since, that if Mr.. Eli Thayer and his Yam
kee emigrants should attempt to put into
execution their plan of colonizing Virginia,
they would be met at the Potomac with
bullets and bayonets. Yet Nj. Thayer has ac-
tualy been at Virginia making observations,
and returned to his home in Worcester last
week alive and weR. He passed through
portions of Western Virginia and Eastern
Kentucky, and made no secret of the object
of his visit, was received with the most cor
dial hospitality wherever he went, by slave
holders as well rs others, and the most in
tense interest was everywhere manifested in
his emigration scheme for infusing Yankee
enterprise and thrift into the decaying COM
munities of the sunny South. He addess-
ed public meetings at several points, and
his expositions of the plans of the Emf
grant Association were listened to with the
closest attention, and complimentary reso-
lutions were passed. This is the report
Mr.. Thayer brings back, and he seems TO
be satisfied that the talk about bullets and
bayonets" is all CANNON. The people, he
says, are ready and anxious for the influx
of "a horde of Northern emigrants" to till
their fields and show them how to appre-
ciate the munificent natural advantages they
possess.-Pitts Jour.
