CHICAGO.
A Sharp Dodge Novel Mode Of SwindIing the
Government.

CHICAGO, February Ga system OF
smuggling through mails, which has
been carried on for some time, was
brought to light in the Chicago post
Office, two weeks since, and since that
time quite a number OF books and ar
ticles manufactured in England have
been seized by the Custom-house Off
GERS. 1t is impossible to estimate the
value of the articles thus smuggled f.,
but it must be considerable, as within
the past ten days over one thousand
dollars worth of smuggled goods have
been seized. They consist of books,
laces, furs, etc. They arrived done
up in ordinary newspaper wrappers,
with necessary postage stamps. Had
they not been so frequently direct
ed to one address suspicion
would probably not have been excit-
ed. Several packages were addressed
to II. BrOtherton, EreepOrt, Illinois.
They were seized and found to con-
tain ermine, furs, lace collars and
other lace. II. Brotherton was dis
covered to be Mrs. BrothertOn, mill
liner. She acknowledged having
smuggled five hundred dollars worth
of goods.
A member of the Chicago Board of
Education was also detected in SNUG
Cling books. Twelve dozen hymn
books addressed to Brigham Young,
Salt Lake, have also been seized. Ii
tie of the hymn books: "Sacred
Hymns and Spiritual Songs, for the
Church of Jesus Christ OF the Latter
Day Saints" and hymns entitled
Lord hear the Red Mans WALL" in
which the Great Spirit scaled upon
to save him from the pale-iaeed foe,
and such like.

Remarkable Caves Discovered in
Iowa.

The Dubuque Times says: "a natu-
raj wonder was lately unearthed on
the MaquOlete, about nine miles
northwest of this city. This natural
wonder consits of i succession or con-
tinuation of caves. These caves were
discovered some months ago one hun
dred feet below the surface OF the earth,
by men who are now busily engaged
with a large working force in pros
pecting them for minerals. The large
cave isOver one thousand two hun
dred feet in length; and the smallest
one six hundred feet, the two being
separated by an east and west bar,
about sixty feet in thickness. No
lead ore has yet been discovered in
the large cave, it being filled with
large bodies of irOnrust rock, which
have fallen down from the roof and
sides in great masses. In the smaller
cave, however, the mineral shows
itself quite freely, and Large quantities
have been taken out, while the pros
pect tor richer leads than any yet
found grows daily more fiattering.
Mineral also abounds in cOnsidera-
BILE quantities through the bar men
NiOuGls anu lilC -AANAANeANAOAAo eNAN NAAtAb ~
will soon be developed here in paying
quantities. That these caves but Lead
to a continuation of others is demon
strated by the fact that a current OF air
puts in from the west so strong that
work cannot be prosecuted without
stopping up the opening. This vol
ume of air is perfectly pure and comes
with a rushing, roaring noise, resem-
bling the roar of distant thunder. AS
soon as the proper arrangements can
be made we understand that the work
of draining will be commenced and
continued until a thorough survey is
made of the whole range. 1t is quite
probable that some new and striking
natural wonder win be developed.
Perhaps another Mammoth Cave is
waiting for the torch of the explorers.
Who knows?

THE HOG CROP.
How the Farmers ans Business Men Saved
their Bacon.

CHICAGO, February G.-The Tri-
bune, in an editorial on the loss OF
farmers by embarrassing during the
past year, says they have found par
tial compensation in the high price
realized for their hogs, the receipts
from this crop having saved many of
them from bankruptcy. If hogs had
been sold at q price corresponding
Nth wheat, thefe would have been
videsnrecd distress in the West, and
All classes of business men would
have felt the sharp pinch Which pre-
vented farmers from paying lor past
purchases and buying new bllis OF
goods. But the farmers have not
made the most of the situT
alton, though shrewd enough in
driving their ordinary bargains. En-
couraged BY the prospect OF a short
crop, many of them bought pork at
high prices, to the full extent OF their
means, and have recently had the
satisfaction of settling with the sellers
at a loss of two or more dollars per
boyea-thus losing every cent made
bv tfle sale of their hogs. Speculatl0nS
i'm pork has been much more rampant
this winter than in any former year
since the close Of the war, and much
trading has been done for parties IN the
country. While this has benefited
commission men, and put money IN
the pockets of sharp men here, 1t his
not been so conducive to the interests
of the farmers and drOvers that they
can afford to repeat the experiment.

Owens and brother live eight miles
west of Kingston, in a large white

several families who. have become CO.
workers in this new church. ] was
reminded of the premises of a large
slave owner prior to the war, when l
looked upon the large white house
and the Small ones. The contrast as
to the houses is very striking. I was
treated very kindly, and accepted an
invitation to dine. Although they
ignore color, yet, when we were seated
at the dinner table, none OF the col

much " human nature in man" now
as in other days; but they purpose

good selection of theological books,
and spend much Of their time In read,

left their own church and added
another to the long list of denomina-

so much pride in the several churches
that they wanted to set an example to
the Christian world of heavenly
living and humility OF conduct, etc.
