QUEER DEAs.-A correspondent Of tho
Boston Transcript writes about the natives
OF Panama, and their notions Of the locomo-
tive and railcars, as follows:
1t is said that many Of them believe tbot
the train moves by soreery. When the first
engine passed by the largest Of the vallares
the black citizens, hearing that something
strange was coming, collected on the river
bank to see it. They werea "a little frightened
when they heard the distant rurnIle. when
they saw the monster putting the smoke in
clouds into the hot shy, they started M and
when the engineer, as the train came tearing
nearer, blew the steam whistle, they plunged
into the first shelter, not caring whether if
was river, mud or canebrake And they
couldn't be tempted to go near the track
again until the priest assursed them that the
engine was not a living monster, but the
cage of demon, whom the white men had
securely chained so that he could not escane
to hurt them. Many of them still believe
that the whistle is no mortal sound. and ev.
ery time they hear the scream, feel that the
priests theory is sufficiently demonstrated.

express had been cut off by Indians. Three
ol the employees of the company were re.
ported killed at Dry Creek station. Steps
are being taken to open the route.
1t was supposed at Washington that the
reported death Of Ty Coon in Japan by way
OF California was mistake, and at first it
was thought it ought not to be communiea.
ted to the japanese Embassy. Subsequently
they were informed of the news. when they
admitted the possibility of an insurrection in
Japan, but not of the assassination of Ty
Coon.
In Congress, the Senate had coneurred in
the House amendment to Pacific telegraph
bill.
The Seceders Convention assembled at

A dispatch was received from Mayor Wood
stating that they represent nobody. 1t was
thought he would not be admitted Among
the speculations is one that II movement is in
favor of Dickinson The only business done
was the appointment ofeommittees, one from
each State on permanent organization There
will be no discussion in public; everything is
conducted and agreed on committee.

luton passed recommending a change in the

The conference committe on the Home
stead bill reported that they could not agree.
In the House, on motion of Mr.. Sherman,
a resolution was adopted allowing Commit
tees to report. This was opposed by Mr..
Branch, because it would give chance to
the Pacific Railroad to consume time.

considered, and various amendments made
among others one reducing the salary Of the
special agent in California from $4,000 to
$1,000. Bill passed the House.

A BALLOON AscENsIoN.-A La Grange,
Iowa, lady went up in balloon recently.
Her descent was the occasion of some excite
ment, among the country folks, and is thus
stated;
Several negroes who were in the field near
by were so heightened by the unexpected
appearance OF the 9ral visitor that they
turned white, quit work left the field, and
haven't been heard of since One Old gem
teman (Anglo Saxon) thought it was a min
lister from Heaven; and, like Elijah, began
to divest himself of his cloak, preparatory
to being waited, in a wicker basket, beyond
Jordan. His "better half" desired him to
wait moment for her. that she might join
him in his journey, but he was too much car
ried away 10y the excitement of the occasion
to listen to her appeals; and he did not be-
come wholly compos till he discovered that
the cart that was to carry him away had
collapsed, and the celestial messenger, from
whom he expected to hear that welcome mes
sage, "come thou &c, proved to he sans
wings, sans everything, but what belongs to
woman.
