Charles Jefi'erds scarcely knew Mrs.

strange as it may appear, was not the
mrderer OF Walton or Matthews. The
present Mayor, Mr.. A. Oakley Hall, my
deceased friend, Mr.. James 7. Brady,

last argument in his behalf in the Court
of Appeals. / think that Mr. Hall iROtCS
that he was innocent of the Matthews
murder, and, consequently, Of the murder
Mr.. Walton. am sure that Mr.. Brady
knew it, and he frequently SO expressed
himself to me. Indeed, in view Of the
facts confded to US under the seal OF
professional secrecy, we could come to

A Man Killed by an EXPLOSION Of
Brandy.


The city inspector of oils cannot be too
cautious in the duties pertaining to his
Office. In Burton, Ohio, few days ago,
j. E. Johnston, the proprietor of store
was instantly killed while testing nom
explosive oil. The circumstances are
about as follows:
To test the oil he used a cask partly filed
with brandy, for a pedestal. While placing
the oil can on the pedestal, some oil was
spilled upon the head of the keg. The key
had bung hole in that end, covered with
tin. To prevent the FIRE from communica-
ting with the brandy, the top of the keg
was wiped with a cloth, which removed
almost every appearance of oil.
To ascertain whether suy Of It r5uaiaed
upon the keg, he touched a match to the
saturated part. A loud explosion followed,
and when the shock was over it was dis
covered that the head of the keg had been
blown out, striking Mr.. Johnston on the
head, with the result above stated. The
accident is attributed to communication
Of the FIRE with the gas in the partly filled
keg, by means ofthe buug-hoId, which was
considered closely covered with tin.

A CAMP STORY.
Ankles and Brawny PaWs-An AdVen.
ture of Dr. Mary Walker.

Ankles and BraWny PaWs-An AdVen.
ture of DIR. Mary Walker.
Jingle of the New York Sun
day NeVs, tells this story, which
has the air Ofprobability:
While with the army of the Poto-
mac, in the summer of 1863, DIR.
Walker visited the headquarters of
Colonel, afterwards General, Samuel
Carroll, of the second army corps.
Failing in all her efforts to obtain a
regular commission as surgeon in
the army, and having only permits
sion to remain with the troops in
the capacity of nurse, the doctor"
was frequently obliged to accept the
hospitality of the officers. On the
occasion referred to, she plainly
stated to Gen. Carroll her intention
of tarrying at his headquarters for a
few days for the laudable purpose
Of looking after the sick. Of course
the General consented, and being as
gallant as he is brave, offered her
the sole use Of his tent, which she
accepted So far, so good.
Early on the morning after her
arrival, field officer of the Seventh
West Virginia regiment, of Carroll 5
Brigade bluff, honest, brave,
devil-may- care old back-woodsman,
took walk over to brigade head
quarters, and noticing that the flies
of CarrOll's tent were still tied,
thought it somewhat strange that
his commanding officer, generally
an early riser, should remain in bed
at so late an hour. | have it, -
said he, thinking a moment; and ap-
preaching the tent, he quietly un-
tied the canvas doors, winking at
the same time to several staff off
GERS who were near by endeavoring
to control their disabilities. The
face of the sleeper was hidden by
the bed covering, and the officer,
quietly lifting the covering at the
foot of the couch, and encircling
two warm ankles with his brawny
paws, while he watched the head of
the bed intently, to see if the sleeper
awoke, shouted at the top of his
lungs as he dragged the. body com
pletely out of the bed to the floor,
Carroll, you lazy cuss, get up here !
It's eight o." The rest of the
sentence was lost in a piercing
scream, such as only a female in
distress can furnish at short notice,
and the jolly old officer, abashed
and dumbfounded, bounded from
the tent like a stag struck by a
three-ounce bullet. The joke wa 5
altogether too good to keep, and
the result was that every soldier In
the second corps soon knew the
story about Colonel =, of the
Seventh Virginia, pulling DIR. Mary
Walker out of bed.

They deny the charge of completely in
any conspiracy against Lopez, and give a
detail Of their sufferings while imprisoned,
showing that their treatment was most
barbarous. They say that Mr.. Wash~
burn did all in his power in their behalf,
and that his own life was endangered.
They condemn the course of Admiral

stead of receiving them as prisoners, and
treating them harshly as such on board
one of his ships. In this, they claim that
they are supported by Ministers Webb
and WAshburn, and all the American

An Item of Interest to Tobacco


Some of the tobacco dealers and manu-
facturers who have unstamped fne-cut and
chewing tobacco on hand being under the
impression that they are liable to penalties
for not having heretofore stamped these
supplies it may be of interest TO state that
the law requires only that such fne-cut
and chewing Tobacco be not sold or offered
for sale without being stamped. The fact
of having a supply on hand without
stamps affixed, if it is not sold or offered
for sale, does not make the holders liable
under the law to fine or other penalty.
