A MILWAUKEE, wis., paper says that
on the passage Of a steamer from Chi
Gag a few nights since, m insane
woman slipped unobserved away from
her guardians, and after a fruitless
search one of the sailors discovered
through the darkness a singular object
on the walking beam of the boat.
Lights we're brought, when it was found
that the object was the insane woman.
She sat on the walking beam as n lady
would sit on a side-saddle, and appeared
to take extreme delight in being borne
up and down with it. As the passen.
gers focked around she became more
excited and behaved more recklessly,
and It was feared that she would fall
among the machinery and be crushed
to death. A heavy seq was running
and Il was not safe to stop tue engines,
but they were made slower, at which
the poor woman appeared Indignant,
threatening to jump off if it did not 60
faster. How to get her off was a ques.
ton. The passengers were requested
to move away, which they did, and sew
eral of the crew, after a number OF at
tempts, succeeded 10 grasping the wo-
man as the walking beam came down
and rescued her, much to her regret.
How she got upon the dangerous perch
was a mystery.

A hasty visit to friends here gave me an
opportunity to see South Bend, the home Of

OF light and glory the night after the Chicago
Convention. The telegraph had already told
the tale Of triumph, and when the delegation
Of citizens, numbered BY scores, returned,
who had gone down to the Convention to
press the claims Of their townsman, the bon

reflection is still to be seen in the counte-
nance Of every South Bender, for this people
beautifully illustrated the language and spirit
OF Naomi's con6ding daughter. We saw the
home Of the next Vice President, a plain but
neat story and n half house, with a pleasant
yard and garden around it. The owner is a
widower, his wife, u native Of Argyle county,
having been dead for several years. The old

In view Of the plausibly confident
presumptuousness with which the Dem
mocratic file leaders and fuglemen have
put forward the names Of Horatio Sey-
mour and Frank P. Blair as their can
didates for the Presidency and Vice
Presidency Of the United States, it is
quite refreshing to consider that after
all, the wise heads of the party can see
farther ahead than even the rank and
file of their own party give them credit
for. The facts of the case are that
they fully realized the self evident fact
that the nomination Of Grant and Col
fax rendered the success Of the Repub-
lican party in the present Presidential
contest certain beyond a shadow Of
doubt. They thoroughly appreciated
the situation at once, and knowing it
would be the worst policy in ~thesworld
to allow any of their best men to be
beaten in the hopeless race, they cast
their eyes about them for o couple OF
prominent yet respectable Democrats
who would make a fair Democratic
showing in the race, and serve to keep
up the spirit and enthusiasm of the
party as far as possible until q better
prospect Of success should offer, four
years hence, when their best men would
be placed in the field. It is with these
shrewd views percolating through the
giant brains Of the Democracy, that
Seymour and Blair are placed in nomi'
nation. No q Democrat believes
they can win. Alas | poor Horatio,
How art thou sacrificed, like a favored
sheep on the altar Of thy party. Thou

What q huge joke on Snyder that they

is bliss, it's folly to be wise," therefore
we will not attempt the standing joke

Mr.. S. Clark, who has just returned from
his ranch in MERGED county, informs US that
about two weeks since, on the trail about
one and a half miles from his ranch, a dead
body was found. The dress denoted that the
deceased was a sheep herder. His appear

three months. The clotted blood in his neck
handkerchief and in his clothes about his
breast denoted that his throat had been cut.
His hands were tied behind his back. There
was nothing about his person to show who
he was; not 4 jack-knife, pencil, nor piece Of
paper In his pockets that might lead to his
Identification. The deceased was a young
man with black hair. His teeth were re-
markable for their beauty, there not being a

and that he had been followed until he had
left the settlement and entered the foot hills,
when he was murdered for his money.

CHINAwoNAN SHoT.-About 2 O'Clock
Yesterday morning a Chinawoman was
shot at Chinatown by a Chinnman. 1t
seems that the woman used to live with
a man in Bannock City, Idaho, and that
after her coming here, he offered seven
hundred dollars as q reward for her re-
turn to him. Being thus made an object
| of value, she became q bone Of conten-
| ton /; and 10 order to attach her value
to himself, one of the spectators Of
Chinatown married her the other day .
| This operation seems to have aroused
the jealousy and d%ispleasure of the other
Cinnamon who hoped to have got the
reward offered for her kidnapping and
on the occasion in question, being
prompted thereto, so it is said, by a
merchant of Chinatown, these Celestial
braves armed themselves aud made war
upon tho poor woman. One of them
shot her through the right thigh, splint-
ering the bone In o most shocking man
ner. She is likely to die. The shooter
has departed for parts unknown. Tho
woman has been removed from China
town by the police.

ROBBED ONCE TOO Orrgx.-On the
9th inst, Thos. Burke appeared at the
Police Office and complained that be
had been robbed on the Lone Mountain
cars Of $545 which he had in q purse, and
what he valued more, a plain gold we'd
ding ring, marked "T. b." which had
been given him by his late wife, and
which was dear to him above all things.
He had, while on the car, incautiously
exposed the purse 10 which he kept the
money and ring to the vulgar herd, BY
shifting it from his %pantaloons to his
coat pocket, and some one had relieved
him Of it.. He did not much mind the
loss Of the money, but the loss of the
ring went to his heart. The detec-
tives sought in vain for purse, money
and ring, until yesterday, when Burke
again made his appearance at the Office
to complain that his room on Sacra-
mento street had been gone through by
some burglar, on Sunday night, and q
large sum of money and a lot Of cloth
ing, etc., were carried of. The partic-
ulars of this last robbery had hardly
been noted down and Burke left, when
Miss Mary Nagle, a servant girl to whom
Burke had been paying his addresses,
and to whom he was engaged to be
married, called for advice. She had
entrusted him with $40 of her hard
earnings to be put in the savings bank
10 her name, and she had found out that
he had deposited it in his own name
and then drawn II out again. Detective
Ellis went for Burke, and suggested to
him that the matter looked just o trihe
dark, not to put too fine o point upon
it. Burke indignantly resented the inn
~plication on his honesty, and said that
he had been cleaned out of every cent
by the burglars, honor bright Never
theless, Ellis went through him, and
found on his person a purse with $3.50
In coin and the identical gold ring,
marked 1T. b." which he said be had
lost on the Lone Mountain cars. Thos.
Burke is booked at the Calaboose on
a charge Of grand larceny: witness,

An OLD DEMocRAr ON GRANT.-Hon.
Isaac N. Morris, an old and influential
Democrat of Quincy, Illinois, made a
long and able speech lately, in favor Of
Grant aud Colfax. The conclusion Of
it was as follows:
II you ask me to forget the rebellion-if
| you ask me to blot out from my recollection
| the memory Of the five hundred thousand
brave patriots who died that their own coun-
try might live-some Of whose graves you
have been strewing a~tfectionately to-day with
flowers, sweet emblems Of gratitude-if you
ask me to shut my eyes to the widows, the
orphans and MANNED soldiers LEFT BY the war
II you ask me to assist in restoring to
power treason and traitors or their aLxiliaries
If you ask me to embrace men whose hands
are stained with the precious blood Of our
fallen heroes, and who only wait for q favor
able opportunity to overthrow the Govern
ment, I tell you frankly that I am not with
you in that.
II you ask me to life my voice against the
great Captain, to whom we are more indebt-
ed for our preservation rs q nation than to
any living man, and who has written his
principles with the point Of his sword on the
nation records, and enstamped his fidelity
to liberty on the nations heart, l tell you
plainly I cannot do that. The ensuing four
years will, in my judgment, be the most
dangerous and eyentful in our history, and
we must have one at the head OF the Govern
ment who will be equal to the emergency, or
we will sink under the weight OF u crushing
revolution, No tremulous hand must be at
the helm no politician whit will seek only
his own interest at the expense Of the national
security. I need hardly add that, II l live
until November and can reach the polls, APP
pealing to the God Of Hosts for the rectitude
| Of my Intentions, and believing l shall be
serving the best interests Of humanity and
my country-belieying there is a necessity
which rises far above conventional platforms
and party demands requiring every patriotic
citizen to do his duty shall cast my vote,
Democrat though I have always been, for the
i%ncorruptible patriot, the best judge Of char:
acter, the best thinker ! know in the United
States, Ulysses s. Grant; and 60 thou and
do likewise, counting it a great privilege.
I would rather have Grant, II he's silent and
still,
Than an empty declaimer Of words;
I would rather have Grant, with his good
honest will,
Than one from noisy political herds.
His deeds are all written in the face Of the
And he who desires can read them afar;
He stands forth to-day with his banner un-
