GRATIFYING INTELLECTUALLY
Page, formerly Of this city, wrote from
Vicksburg, a week or so ago, an
nouncing the death of Mr.. Peter
Casey, formerly Of Caseyville, now of
Vicksburg, and well and favorably
known in this city. A letter was re-
ceived from Mr.. Page yesterday an
mourning that the report OF Mr.
Casey's death was an error; that Mr.
Casey was not only notidead, but had
not even been sick.
Mr.. Page has been stopping in the
country, fifteen miles from the city,
during the prevalence of the epidemic,
and sent a messenger once a week to
the city, to mail and receive letters.
The messenger bore out the intelli-
gence of Dir. Casey's death, which
we, in common with all his friends,
are gratifed to learn was erroneous.
The PENNSYLVANIA CENTRAL
RAILROAD.-By the completion Of
the Pan Handle Railroad, from Steu-
benville to Pittsburg, the shortest
route to the East, from Evansville, is
via the Evansville & Charlottesville,
Terre Haute & indianapolis, Indiana
Central, the Pan Handle, and Penn
sylvania Central Railroads Time
from Evansville to New York, forty
four hours, with the famous silver
palace sleeping cars from Columbus
to New York, without change, The
scenery along the Pennsylvania Cen
trail is the finest il the world.
BURNED BY LIGHTNING. = From
Mr.. T. Britton we learn that the barn
of Mr.. Edmund Scbofeld, who re-
sides two miles from the city on the
Washington Avenue road, was struck
by lightning during the storm Of Fri
day night, set on fire and entirely
consumed, with all its contents, ex-
cept three horses which were gotten
out. The barn was full of hay, grain,
farming implements, &c. Total loss
estimated at $500. The property was
insuredinth the Sinississippi, land Mr..
Schofeld was surprised to learn that
the policy was utterly worthless. This
should be a lesson to men to insure
only with responsible parties and in
esponsible Offices.

ESPECIAL DESPATCH TO EVENING TELEGRAPH.
BALTIMORE, Oct. lS.-The afray about O'Clock
last night in Howard street. near Mulberry,
whilst some fourteen hundred of the colored
troops were marching, and the rear platoon of
a company alleging they had been fred upon by
some one outside with pistol and also stoned,
discharged dozen of their muskets, killing
boy, named Charles A. Bllmeyer, has caused
intense excitement. The deceased was merely
spectator. Investigation before the Coroner
leaves it doubtful whether the colored troops
had really been first assaulted. The evidence is
contradictory.
Thus tar the authorities have been unable to
fix the killing upon any ono. 1t is still under
investigation. IT is supposed that the entire
company will be arrested and held to answer.
At ono time after the ARRAY, there wore
apprehensions OF a serious riot, but the police
quelled the row. 1t is supposed that this cir
cumstance will cause disbanding by Governor
Swami, of the negro troops. The matter has
assumed a very serious aspect, and threats are
loud. The Masons and Odd Fellows, and a
large number of our citizens are now out law
ing the corner stone of the new City Hall. It tis
an imposing affair.

The Roman question was the all-pervsding
Topic OF the Continental journals, and OF course
had been the main cause of the panic which
had agitated the Paris BoUrse for several days
preceding the departure of the Persia. The
panic, however, had materially subsided when
the steamer left, and prices had somewhat re-
covered, bat confidence had by no means been
re-estabhshed. The following proclamation had
been issued by the National Roman Junta:-

A Secret Letter from Napoleon.

The Globe prints the following letter of Napo-
leon III, which, says the Globe, has never hith-
erto been published, and copy OF which we
have obtained from an authentic source at Ber-
lin. 1t is very curious, as it shows the views
which the French Emperor entertained Tor at
leass which lie wished the public to believe he
entertained a year ago, IN regard TO the annexa-
tions of Prussia. 1t was the letter which caused
M. Drouyn de Lhuys to resign his Office of Min
lister of Foreign Affairs:-

MRS. LINCOLN AGAIN.

1t has Just come to light that Mrs. Lincoln
has, for a year past, been raising money on
various articles at paWnbrokers shop in
Chicago. This institution, which has paid her
some $500, now has two or three OF her dresses,
one being, 1t is asserted, the dress which she
wore at the time OF the assassination of her
husband.
A every Dear Friend" and $4,000 Dress,
Mrs. Lincoln the widow OF President Lincoln,
has advertised number Of cameps hair shaWls
and other costly apparel for sale. Among the
articles Is lone white point lace dress, unmade,
which cost S4000.n One of the cameIs hair
shawls she says, cost $500, and another $3.50.
There is also a white point-lace parasOl-cover
which cost $3.50, Mrs. Lincoln states that these
articles, which cost such enormous sums, were
gifts of Every dear friends;" and that, as she
has an income of only Sl7O0 a year, she Is COM
PEELED to dispose of them. 1t is painful, on
every account, to see Mrs Lincoln ia this atti-
tude before the public. She has undoubtedly a
right to dispose OF these costly goods, if she
sees ht to do so; but 1t strikes us that the every
dear friend" who made her present of -four
thousand dollar dressn when her husband was
in power, should have "come down. now that
the widow needs more money, and, as she very
forcibly says, ''must have it," Who is this "very
dear friend?" Was he shoddy contractor Can
any one tell us?
Ne are glad TO see that Mrs. Lincoln's sense
of propriety prevented her including In the list
of advertised dresses the half-mourning which
she is said to have put on at the time OF the
death OF PrincelAlbert.
