he lived. He was known to have beautiful
teeth, one of which he had extracted short
time previous to his disappearance, and there
was one tooth missing in the remains found

sa- A great section of the "girdle
round the EARTH" was finished on Friday
The Atlantic and Pacific were united by tel
egraph, and now the Atlantic cities and San
francisco can talk together. The connec-
ton OF the Eastern AID Western divisions at
salt Lake was established on Friday, and the
Philadelphia Bulletin says that hundreds OF
dispatches have already been received and
sent, some of congratulaton from public
iunctionaries, but most of them legitimate
business messages. The course taken by the
wires is said to be four or five thousand
miles long, and the enterprise is altogether
me most stupe ldously successful one known
N telegraphic history. A great part of it is
through wild country, where the Indian
It'll dwellS and the buffalo still roams. 1t is
subject of special congratulation that in a
time of war. our people have been able to
Gchlve this brilliant triumph of peace. This
line of telegraph is tc be carried over into
russian Asia, and thence to ST Petersburg,
where it will conrect with all the cities of
Europe. Who knows but that in the course OF
year we may be getting our European news
by this back way?
