REVOLT ON BOARD A PERUVIAN WAR
Observation-Disclosures from Valparaiso states
that a revolt broke out on the morning of the
1st October, on the Peruvian war steamer
Union, at Valparaiso 1t was started by Cap1
tain Varea, of the marine corps, ostensibly in
favor of his uncle, Col Balta, for the Peruvian
Presidency, and to get rid of Tucker, the Com
federate American, as commander of the PERU
Wan feet. The affair took place while Admir-!
al Tucker was at Santiago at a ball given BY
the President. A Peruvian officer gives the
following account of the affair."
"At three o'clock in the morning / noticed
that there appeared to be something unusual
on board of the Union, but did not suspect the
real state of affairs. A little later smoke began
to arise from the chimney, and there were cries
Of Viva Montero; death to the Yankees; death
to Tucker Immediately beat to quarters,
and as one of the water police boats pulled
past me, told the officer in command to noti-
fy the Union that if they attempted to move /
would open my fire upon them, and run them
down. By this time the allied squadron were
cognizant of what was going on, and all the
commanders got their boats ready to board the
Union, and quell the mutiny. As we pulled
for her the mutineers jumped into their boats
and pulled for the shore. They succeeded in
gaining tho shore, although closely pursued by
our boats. By o'clock the crew were all al.
rested, and at 8 in the afternoon varea was
taken prisoner, and they are all confined or
board the Admirars ship in double irons. The
Chilian authorities wanted to try them by
court-marshal and shoot them, but this was op
posed by Admiral Tucker, who will await or.
ders from Lima about their disposal
This Varea depended upon his marines to ac
complish his object, which he states was to ere
ate counter revolution against Prado; a larg'
amount of correspondence with many of tn,
principal malcontents in the navy was fount
upon him." t. ..e. VV rS

TABLE CRooUET-Field and parlor croquet
have become very popular in England and the
United States, and still another application of
the principle is announced. find the fol-
lowing in an English Journals A90a BaA
There is unquestionably dearth of good in
door games calculated to amt1se mixed party
during wet day or long evening. 1t is not
to be wondered at, then, that the deservedly
popular game of croquet should have been
made useful in that direction. Boards have been
constructed into which hoops may be fitted;
but these are liable to objection on account Of
their expense, six-foot board, with imple-
ments complete, costing about seven pounds
Another plan is to afix weights to the legs of
the hoops, and so to dispense with the board ;
but the weighted hoops are very likely to be
knocked over or displaced, and the weights in
terfere greatly with the course of the balls, so
that being wired" is the normal state ofevery-
body. A third and less Objectionable mode is
to make the hoops hollow cylinders, two
prOngs projecting from plate of metal through
the cloth to which the cylinder is attached; but
even this is complicated when compared with
the improved patent table croquet we are about
to describe. The hoops consist simply of a
bent wire, the part of the leg which in the
outdoor game is stuck in the ground being
bent at right angles to the plane of the hoop.
The bent parts OF the legs are inserted through
a cloth, and the game is as effectually set up as
in lawn croquet The legs are SO contrived as
to hold the hoops firmly in place, and yet they
dc not interfere appreciably with the running
of the balls. The game though inferior to bill
liards, is, we think, far superior to bagatelle
(and indeed to all other games played on a
table or table-like board), as it combines the
Science" of outdoor croqnet with almost as
much accuracy and delicacy of stroke as is
requisite at billiards. When we add to this
that it is easily put up and taken down, and
that it is very cheap (the sets most recon-
mended being undera guineal we think we
shall not be far wrong if we prophesy that
"Cavendish's' improved patent table sroquet
will command large sale.

The North Western Elevator which was built

store capacity for nearly 100000 bushels, was
destroyed by fire last night. There was stored
in it 10000 bushels of grain, on which there
was an insurance of S220,OOO. The elevator
was valued at $150,000, and was insured for
$4,000. The loss falls principally upon East

The fire was first discovered in the cupola,

IA New ROLE FOR AN. UNFoBTUNATE
PRINCE.-If reports that continue to come to
us from Europe about the Hapsburg Dynasty
have any foundation, Maximilianis quite likely
to find more agreeable position and more re-
spectacle work after he leaves Mexico, than he
has had during the last four years. The news
has lately been repeated, in very circum-
stantial manner in high quarters in Vienna,
that Francis Joseph proposes to abdicate in ia
vor of the Archduke Rudolph, but the turn Of
events is said to depend upon the course Of
Maximilian Of Mexico. AS the heir to the Aus
trian throne is only eight years old it would be
necessary to appoint Regent, and the Empe-
ror, though very desirous Of abdicating, IN not
disposed to do so unless the Regency can be as
sumed by the Archduke Macmillan, who is of
such great popularity and distinguished ability.
1t is to be hoped that Maximiliirn will accept
this position, if he has the opportunity to do so.
Though determined to get him out OF Mexico
the American people bear him no ill-will per
sonally Is is as the representative of an anti
American principle and of anti-American in
terests and as the agent of Louis Napoleon.
that Maximilian has our antagonism. Xs Re-
gent Of Austria, or as Austrian Emperor, we
have no doubt he would give us cause to ad-
mire him.-N. Y. Times III rfIIT1-7 -

The Lewiston Journal says that as MIR. and
Mrs. H.C. Barrows of Auburn, were returning
from West Minot Monday, their carriage came
in contact with a cart which was standing in
the street. with such force that both were
thrown to the frozen ground. Mr.. Barrows es-
capped serious injury, but Mrs. Barrows was se-
verely cut about the face and arms.
The Anson Advocate records an accident
which on Friday last caused the death of Mr..
Rodney Collins, a prominent and esteemed
citizen of that place. He was tending his grist-
mill, and went below to oil or examine some of
the gear and was caught by the cogs and
drawn in between the main shaft and the spin
die that carries the wheat run of stones, and
killed instantly-the body just below the arms
being literally crushed to pieces. He was
found by his son lying across the bed-piece on
which the spindle runs, some ten or fifteen
minutes after he was last seen-already dead.
His age was g. ' -'- 4- "a +. .ios1 \ ab4.. ~

The venerable Mrs. Alice Butterfield, who
was born the year before the first white iahab-

clearly recalls the incidents of the early histo-
ry of these towns, informs writer in the Far
mer that the last of the resident In

made his home in Strong on the banks of the
river near the North end of the wire bridge.
He had the second frame house ever built in

REGISTERED LET TERs.-Dispatches from
Washington state that committee of special
agents of the Postofice Department have been
in consultation with the Postmaster General
upon new plan for the registration of letters.
1t is proposed to furnish postmasters with en-
velopes of large size, and make them so con-
spicuous by means of various colors and print
ing, that they cannot readily be concealed by
the persons who have the handling of letters,
as they are taken from or placed in the mail
pouches In this way it is expected the secur-
ity Unregistered letters will be greatly promoted
