SINGULAR RASCALITY.-Aq queer case
OF kidnapping has just TRANSFERRED, and
IN some of its aspects it is highly roman
TIC Chief of Police Cam several days
ago received telegram from DR.. Cessan,
residing near Grand Gulf, Mississippi,
that his child, little girl ten years Of
age, had been kidnapped by her uncle,
John Cessan. and she was probably at
that time in New Orleans. Several de-
tectives undertook the search, but their
efforts proved unavailing. The only clue
given in the dispatch was that the child
while in the immediate vicinity of her
father's house, had been dresser in boys
clothing, and would in all probability. be
passed off as her uncle's son. On Sun
day the case Was turned over to Special
officer Cunningham. and, after lengthen-
ed search. he discovered they had been
here, but left day UT two before for st.
Augustine, Florida. kilograms were
sent to st. Augustine, St. Marks, Appal-
achicola, and Pensacola, and on Monday
the two were arrested in the last-named
place by Marshal McCloskey. AS the
kidnapped child had a great deal Of
property in her own right, it is supposed

Go TO FARMING.-A good living is
what comparatively few men succeed In
making in village or city life, and yet
nothing is more easy OF accomplishment.
ON the farm. Besides, there is pleasure
in cultivating and embelIishing the earth,
improving and increasing its products,
and thus adding to the aggregate of hu-
man happiness. Why, then, should
young men hesitate to be farmers? 1t is
both profitable and honorable. 1t is the
nearest approximation TO independence
that a man, as member of society. can
make. A gentleman farmer-and all
farmers are F., or should be, gcntlemen-
belongs to an order Of nobility that is not
indebted to place. holders for installation,
and may, if he chooses. be ranked among
the greatest benefactors Of the human
race. Let the idle young men go to work
on farms. and quit seeking tnlrd and
fourth rate clerkships. In short, go to
farming and quit begging.

A SICKENING STRUGGLE FOR LIFE
We haze seldom read more horrible in
stance of the desire to save his own life,
at the peril of others, than is showG by
the following, which occurred after the
late accident to the Stonewall in the
Mississippi river:
A group Of men in the water sought
t. save themselves by the aid of float
ing bale of hay, which was to small to
float them all. A savage contest arose
for its possession, all struggling to obtain

TEMPERANCE ITEMs.-Hon. Henrn
Wilson in an address lately said :" Id
spite of much that is discouraging, any
an increase of drinking in some circles,
on the whole there is some progress.
There was FIVE times as much drinking
in Congress when he entered the Senate,
fourteen years ago, as there is now.
When the rebels left, they took great
deal of the liquor with them; and those
that had now come into Congress from
the South have not brought so much
back with them. Liquor shops are now
banished from the National Capitol.
This is new thing and great improve.

pledged temperance men in Washington.
Two-thirds of the dram shops have also
been closed. And he thanked God that
we now have President of these United
States who does not drink drop; and a
Vice President who does not drink; and
Secretary of the Treasury who is tenn
perance man. and who is not IN league
with the whiskey ring. We already see
something of the effect Of this, in the i'm
proved condition of the revenue in the

UNDERGROUND RIVER IN ONO 1t

about mile west of Fremont a remark

current, and no outlet above the surface

" discovered several years ago by j man
who Was return ng from day s chopping
in the woods. In walking over slight
ly sunken place, he noticed hollow
sound, and turning, struck the ground
with his ak. The ak broke through and
has never been seen since. Further in
vestigation showd rock about six feet
above the surface, with crevice a foot
or more wide, in which water could be
seen for several feet below. By tracing
its course further down, and breaking
through the crust the same phenome-

peice of wood or other floating substance
in the upper aperture, it was soon seen
to pass the lower one, showing a strong
surrent. A lead and line let down to the
depth OF seventy feet found no bottom
The supply of water is only slightly at
fected by drought, and pump set up in
one of the places above mentioned has
furnished the purest water to the whole

aeu0ld Conspiracy Investigation In
New York.

The New York Grand Jury is continu-
its Investigations of the recent opera
tions of the Wall street stock and gold
gamblers and sharpers, and is producing
no little excitement among brokers and
bankers. A report that they had branch
ed off from the gold to the greenback
spectators, and were gathering evidence
in regard to those who were, some time
since, prominent in locking upgreenbacks.
SO scared several bankers that three firms,
who have been charging illegal rates, sent
checks for the differences to all their Gus
toners. 1t appears from what has trans
PRED, that the Investigations will clear
President Grant and Mis- Grant from all
implication, but will show Corbin, who
married Gen. Grant SISTER, to be Sound
rel, and will result in his Indictment, and
that of Gould and Butter6eld. The fol-
lowing are couple Of late dispatches
FROM WASHINGTON.
The Grand Jury investigation into the
gold conspiracy in New York will develop
facts of an unpleasant character regard
ing several prominent Washingtonians.
1t will also exculpate President Grant
and his family from the mischievous
charges made against them by the Fisk
Gould crowd. This exculpation will con-
sist. among other things. in the unearth-
Ing of private letter from Mrs. Grant
TO Mrs. Corbin, in which she asks the lat
ter to persuade her husband to keep out
of all speculations, and gives as reason
the fact that the President has been great
ly worried for fear that it may be thought
that, on account of his relationship to
Corbin, he is also interested. Finally, it
will he discovered that COrbin made
use of disconnected portion of private
correspondence for the purpose Of deceiv-
ing Fisk into the belief that the Presi-
dent was in the pool with him.
FROM NEW YORK.
Stone. the broker, with whom Gould
said Corbin kept Gen. Grants accounts,
says in a card that his firm never specu-
lated dollar for Grant, either directly or
through any one else. The whole story
is a malicious lie. The World reporter.
