The recent gold speculation In New York
continues to evoke remarkable developments.
1t having been alleged that Mr.. Abel r. Cor
bin, a brother-in-law of President Grant, was
operating largely in gold in connection with
Mr.. James Fisk, Jr., the editor Of the New York
Sun dispatched a reporter to the residence Of
Mr.. .Corbin to make inquiries on the subject.
Mr.. Corbln, as stated by the Suns reporter,
unhesitatingly denied the soft impeachment,
of which may be judged of by the following re-
ply from Fisk, Jr., the lrreprcssible:
ERIE RAILWAY COMPANY.
CONPTROLLERs OFFICE, New YORK, Oct. 4.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE sun.
Dear Str-There seems to be no longer any
doubt that Mr.. A. r. Corbin, brother-in-law OF
President Grant, has stated to your reporter
that he did not associate with such men as
myself; that had not been to his house since
last summer; that he had never communicated
with me respecting gold operations; and that
Mr. Grant would not hold an interview with
any such man as myself.
These statements make 1t necessary for me
to state that Mr.. Corbin has constantly asso-
ciated with me; that / have been in his house
repeatedly since last summer; that visited
him on the very afternoon OF the day on which
he made these statements, and that he spent
more than an hour with nae in the Eric Rail-
way office on the afternoon of Saturday, Sep
tember 25, the day after the gold panic. 1t is
further proper for me to say that Mr.. COrbin
has been q party in interest with us, and others
whose names 1t Is not now necessary to men
tion, in the recent gold speculation. and that
he has constantly communicated with me res
pecting this gold speculation.
In fact, Mr.. Corbln was in this speculation
long before was. 1t ha6 been organized and
carried on by him and other gentlemen for some
weeks before l knew of its existence. He Is
entitled to almost the entire credit of origina-
ting the grand scheme for advancing the price
of gold, and willingly discaim in his favor
the honor-so kindly imputed to me by the
press in general-Of having devised this bold
and brilliant operation. 1t was the fruit Oh
Mr.. Corbins own suggestive mind, and long
before knew anything o. it, Mr.. Corbin's rep
RESERVATIONS concerning the powerful influence
which he could bring to bear in favor of tir"
speculation had enlisted III his support other
gentlemen of means and capacity; and 1t IS
only lust to say that Mr. $Corbin's assurances
on this point were fully carried out up to the
23d Of September.
AS to the remaining peint of Mr.. Corbin's
statements it is sufficient 10 refer to the Asso-
ciated Press dispatch from Washington this
morning, by which it will be seen that General
Grant speaks freely of an interview which he
had with me on my boat last summer, and
which was exceedingly pleasant on both sides.
enclose you few afEdavits which viii
give Eou further information concerning this
matter.

SATURDAY, MAY s, 1869.
May Day.
BY H. F. CHoRLE1 \

The sun, already from the skies
Above tho belfry cleaning,
Peeps in ut many n Inaiden's eyes,
And laughs her from her dreaming.
The wind, that all the night was low
Among the chestnuts on the brow,
Begin to carol gay. and merrily to say,
eye boys and girls, who love the spring,
Troop out, troop out to dance and sing,
Ye should not be so slow,
On glad May Day"
The hall must lay its grandeur by,
The hamlet cease its labor,
As squire and hind agree TO try
The worth of pipe and tabor.
E EN- helpless age, in elbow chair,
Sits by and mods its thin gray hair,
To hear the music play, and merrily to say,
"The MIN ble-t dancer on the green,
Is far less brisk than he hath been,
When he the sport did share
Of glad May Day"
There's no one here, who, grave and stern,
Our revel would be scorning,
Save owlet grim, who needs must turn
From mirth. and song. and morning.
Tho more the cares our hearts have known
The filter It's we lay them down,
When spring. time points the way
Then merrily while ye may,
Let all who love to dance and sing,
Go round and round in blithsome ring,
aud make III least your own
One glad May Day.

A writer writes: Putting up the hair
of children in curling papers breaks it
and checks its growth; often pulls it out
by the roots. Curling irons are fatal to
the hair to both children and grown per-
sons. The heat saps up the juice out of
the fbers as etfectually as fire or frost
saps the vitality of green branch, leav-
ing but dry withered skeleton. The
practice which hair dressers have of friz--
zing out the hair with comb, to make
the most of of it, is one of the most cruel
injuries that can be inflicted on the living
hair. The comb cuts it in the act of
frizzing it. You can test the truth of
this by combing out the hair after it has
been dressed. The hair sometimes comes
out by the .handfuls; and further, this
process tanSles up the hair, and great
deal of it is broken and pulled out in try
ing to comb it straight again"

a Fearful Adventure

The prairies in certain parts of the
Southwest, during drought, sometimes
become as dry and parched as tinder,
and fire once started among them flies
with the> >feetness of the wind and the
fury Of the volcano. Woe to the man or
beast caught in it's path without the
means of escape.
Some twenty odd years since, party
of three hunters were encamped in
small grove in the far Southwest. They
were on their return from Santa Fe; but
having had sharp running fight with a
party of Apaches, they had been driven
far out of their course, and had now
paused to rest their weary animals.
They were all expert marksmen and
when the red skins turned back from the
fruitless pursuit, it was with such a loss
of numbers as effectually to cripple them
and make the hunters feel safe from dis
turbance.
Two of the trappers were brothers
George and Ned Williams, whilst the
third was lifelong companion by the
name of Parker.
They had kindled small fire, and
having cooked a goodly sized piece Of
buffalo meat which they had carried
with them, they were now smoking their
pipes and chatting, and resting them
selves.
"Do you know" remarked Parker,
after several minutes chat on other mat
ters, "that we've drifted into a part of
the country where water is mighty
scarce ?"
"No. Have you ever been here be-
fore ?"
'I was here ten years ago, and had
just about the worst time you ever heard
of. For the best part of three days 1
hunted for water without finding drop.
My poor horse moaned and staggered
until he fell down and gave up the ghost
and I kneeled over and concluded that
Tom Parker had his last hunt and got
throwed at last But just then, as the
good Providence willed it, I was found
by party of traders, and they poured
about quart of whiskey down my throat
and soon put me on my legs again"
"Thas was during dry season, sup
poser"
"Just about such season as this
not bit dryer, and its my opinion that
we had best get back on the regular trail
as soon as we can. Have any of you
seen any signs of water since we COM
menced that race with the Apaches ?"
tsI believe you're right" replied the
elder Williams; we arc indeed in bad
part of the prairie, and l believe the
only fluid among us is pint of whiskey."
"That stuff will do for the men. but
the animals would make rather hard
work with it," laughed Ned.
ayes; q man and hog, I believe are
the only creatures that you get to take
the stuff"
Sometime after this Parker rose to his
feet and began snuf6ng the air.
"Seems to me there is something that
smells strange" he remarked; "haven't
you noticed it?"

A spring wagon has been invented by
a gentleman in Mayslick, KY, which he
proposes to run without any kind of an
animal or steam power. He has already
perfected small model, which runs up
or down hill very rapidly. The power is
received from an immense coiled steel
spring, which will run for half an hour
without being wound up. In going up
hill the spring exhausts itself, but in
going down hill it winds itself up. The
inventor claims that he can carry very
heavy loads over any ordinary road.

USE OF LEMoNs.-Whenp persons are

Of the greater part of the surface OF the
tongue, one of the best coolers" inter-
nal or external, is to take lemon, cut
off the top, sprinkle over it some loaf su-
gar, workingit down slowly, squeezing
the lemon and adding more sugar as the
acidity increaces, from being brought up
from a lower point. Invalids with fever
ishness may take two or three lemons a
day in this manner with the most re-
markable benefit, manifested by sense
of coolness, comfort and invigoration.
A lemon or two thus taken at teatime, as
an entire substitute for the ordinary sup

a comfortable nights sleep and an awak-

appetite for breakfast, to which they are

says that DR.. Hickman, Demonstration Of
Anatomy in the University of Pennsylva-

position of the internal organs in the dis
secting room of the University. The
apex of the heart is on the right side; in
fact, every organ occupies exactly the
opposite side from what is natural. This
may be cited as good case of total

two eclipses of the sun. The first will
take place on the 23d of July, but will
be only partial, and invisible in this

of the sun occurs. This will be the most
interesting that has been witnessed in
the United States for years, and will not

Fortunately, the wind blew parallel with
the current, SO that there was little fear
Had it blown across the creek it would
have communicated to the grass upon
the other side, and made the situation of
the hunter uncomfortable, if not abso-
lutely perilous.
The sun was past the meridian before
the fire had subsided enough to make it
safe for the hunter to cross. BY that
time his horse had secured a good rest,
and his bath had refreshed him not
little. But his master SWAN back with
him, and upon reaching land did not re-
mount him Taking his bride in his
hand he led him with sad and forebod-
ing heart to the grove where he had
parted wirh his friends The prairie
was almost as black as ink, while here
and there were stretched the smoking
carcasses of the animals which had been
overtaken aud burned in their desperate
attempts to escape.
His fears were too sadly, realized. In
the grove were found the charred bodies
of his friends and horses, while fully
hundred buffaloes and prairie wolves
were scattered among them. It looked as
if they had persisted in their attempts
to fire the prairie until trampled under
foot by the rushing animals many of
whom fell exhausted, when they all per-
ished together. 1t was fearful sight,
and while mourning the loss of his COM
rades Parker could but be thankful at
his own Providential escape.

mother was ''down" on the measure, and
Dicky was forbid the premises. Notes
were exchanged through a knot hole in
the high board fence which inclosed
the yard. One day the old lady went
out 'calling," and Dicky being duly in
formed of the fact, called on Katy, but
remained too long. The old lady return
ed suddenly, and there being no chance
for him to escape, at the instance of
Katy, Dicky popped into closet. The
old lady saw that Katy felt confused, and
guessed that Dicky had been about she
supposed, of course, that he had made
good his escape, and thinking that the
young couple had agreed, perhaps, to
elope together, determined to be too smart
for them; SO she shut Katy up in the
same closet where Dicky was concealed,
and giving her pair of quilts and pill
low, locked her up for the night. She
didn't see Dicky.
The next morning she went to the
closet to let Katy out.

hardly get her breath for moment. FL
