Mysterious Disappearance.

On the 22d of May, General Henry
C. Wilson, well known and much
respected citizen of Columbus, came
to this city, stopped at the Burnet
House, and registered himself as
''from home" He came for the pur-
pose, we understand. Of collecting
moneys-$3,0 900 in the total, with
which to raise mortgage upon some
of his property. On Tuesday. of
last week, he was expected home by
his family in Columbus. But instead
of him there came letter, in his
hand writing, stating that he had
been successful in business nego=
tiation, and would be detained for a
day. On that same day. we believe,
he was seen walking up to Fourth
street. on Vine, after having taken
his dinner at the Burnet House.
And this is the last seen Or heard of
him by his family or his relatives.
who are now making anxious in
quiries after him. He was to have
gone to Louisville, that very day, in
company with Mr.. Steele. of that
city, but failed to make his appear
ance in time for the boat. Upon last
leaving his ro oom at the Burnet House
he made no preparation for depar-
ture from the city, His baggage
was found there. as he had left it
He gave no intimation to any of his
acquaintance as to any intention to
leave the house or the city. Thus
his disappearance is matter of com
plete mystery-food for most pain
full surmise-to his family. THERE'S
some fear that he may have met with

The fate of this fallen monarch is
yet undecided. Some reports indi-
cate that he is to be courtmartialed,
and others that he will be allowed to
leave the country.
The following proclamation ofhis
will be read with some interest:
''CoUNTRYMEN-After the valor

mand of the United States, after

Snakes in Human Stonachs.

Z There has been much talk about
Mrs. Parker of Anamosa, Iowa, who
has been reported to have snake
in her stomach. She died few
days ago, and a post. exam
-fnatfon was made of which the fol
lowing is correct report:
r. On Monday, a post-mortens exam
nation, was held, by request Of Mr..
Parker, to decide the question
whether his wife had been the vic
tim Of miserable auack or had been
treated by scientific man. Mrs.
Parker had often made the request
that an examination should be made
as she was convinced that some
monster inhabited her inteynal Or
gans In the examination an Incl
sion was made, commencing just be-
low the chin and reaching the whole
length of the abdomen, and all the
internal organs were exposed to view
and subject to thorough eAamina-
tion. The mucuous memberane
of the throat (the pharynx snd lar
ynxl were found liberated their en-
tire surface: the heart was in Q
healthy condition.
Upon attempting to- remove the
lungs which, in the healthy subject,
hang loose in the thorax 50 that they
are easily removed by severning
their natural connections, it was
found that by disease they were
firmly attached to the walls Of the
chest. The left lung for it's whole
extent was deceased mass, and had
to be dissected from all it's sur
rounding organs with care to re-
move it entire. The lower portion
Of the left lung was entirely gone,
and its place occupied by large
abscess, which had formed adhe-
fsions to the ribs, stomach and liver
On the inside of the abscess small
particles of tubecular deposits were
found. The upper portion of this
lung was congested, and tubercular
deposits found through it. The
right lung was also congested, and
the same tubercular concretions were
found scattered through the upper
portion, and had begun to soften and
destroy the lung.
Then came the search for the
monster "reptile with four feet, -
'aarge head, and coated like the
stomach so that the acid ofthe liver
would not dissolve it, No one ap-
lpeared afraid, as the monster "was
dead and good many present to
assist if one o t us should be pounced
upon. With caution and careful
mess we carried on our examination
through the large and small intes-
tines up to the stomach. another de-
tachment down the throat to the
other end of the organ then with 9
bold rush the snakes hiding place
was cut open, and nothing of ''skul
or skin," tracks, marks, or indica
tions that showed that such an ami
NAL had ever visited that much-se-
Guided spot; and the fast believers
of snake in the stomach have come
to the conclusion that they never
did really believe any thing about it

The Next Presidency.

While it is yet early to discuss the
Presidential question, politicians are
already pulling wires, setting traps
and grinding axes. We have no
doubt that Grant is in the way of
some of them, and we heartily
hope he will continue to be. We
fully endorse the following on this
subject from one Of our excellent
exchanges, the Lancaster Gazette.
A number of Republican papers
in Ohio and other States have re-
Gently indulged in elaborate articles
on the Presidential nomination for
the election next year. These seem
generally to be of one peculiar tenor,
full o sounding declarations that the
candidate must be a man of a very
particular description, and such a
perfect pattern of craftsmanship.
patriotism, and so forth, as can be
found nowhere outside of the ranks
of the old political stagers who
have had Presidency on the brain
ever since they were honored with
the first mark Unpopular favor. He
must be Republican according to
the standard prescribed by these
writer's, and nothing else.
Now, the whole Movement looks
to us like nothing else than an at
tempt to check and obstruct the evi-
dent drift of popular, opinion in a
certain direction ON this question,
and which it is known, would swell
to an irresistible flood should con-
tingencies combine to permit full
vent and free from expression to it.
d To be more clear, we state our be
lief that politicians have commenced
an active system of maneuvering
with a view Of heading off the nom
ination of U. S. Grant, just as, pre-
vious to the last Presidential cleo
ton, the same class of operators
tried to prevent the nomination of
Abraham Lincoln, The intriguing
now in progress will probably have
q similar result to that of the occa-
sion alluded'to, and we cannot see
that it is result to be deprecated.
On the contrary, the nation ought
to rejoice with q mighty gladness
that it has the power to command
services Of a loftier character, even,
than any he. has yet rendered the
country, of. a citizen SO worthy OF
all honor, so4devoid Of demagogism
and the craft of the mere politician
so brilliant in previous services SO
modest ia pretension while undoubt
ed in capacity; and so unimpeacba
bic in patriotism and soundness on
all the vital questions affecting the
future welfare of the country, as U
lysses S.yGrait. 1t is an affectation
ofwhich any Republican should be
ashamed, that he cannot trust sucl
a man in the Presidential office.

THE Washington Star, of the 4th
inst says of the election which took
place in that city on Monday, Sd inst.
The election yesterday resulted as
we anticipated, in the success Of the
Republican ticket by large major
ity-between two and three thou
sand. The Republican candidates
for Collector, Register, and Surveyor
were elected, sixteen out of twenty
one numbers of the lower Board of
the City Councils, and five Of the
eight members of the upper Board
voted for yesterday. The perfect
order maintained throughout the day
told well for the moderation and
good sense of citizens of all parties,
and was attributable also in a large
degree, no doubt, to the thoughtful
provisions made by Superintendent
Richards, and their faithful execu-
ton by his excellent police.
