to the bank, got up and dressed hlmself,
and looking out of the window, saw two

NARROW ESCAPE. - Yesterday morning
q week ago an event frequently read Of,
but seldom witnessed, occurred at Hanover
Junction. A Mr.. Cowles, Well-to-do
farmer from New York State, who lately
settled in that locality, was holding, an I'M,
mense "gentleman cow" which ne hao
recently purchased from the late MIR. DOS
well, awaiting its turn to be shipped on q
car for Richmond-the rope was attacned
to the BULBS horns, the end in Mr. CoWles's
hand. MIR. Cowles dropped two ears OF
corn before the animal, and not falling near
enough, he approached and kicked them be-
meath his mouth, and turned, when the ami
NAL quickly advanced and lifted Mr.. CoWles
with the greatest ease, gently throwing MN
Az feet in the air, as it were to catch him
squarely on his horns for "falr ball, "
which he did, when, without any apparent
effort he threw the gentleman at least nine
and half feet straight up in the air; fall
ing, the expert animal again caught him on
his horns, and this, the third time, threw
Mr.. G. up five and half feet falling, he
struck on the animals launches with a
cracking sound, and fell to the ground.
Instantly the beast turned to gore him, but
was prevented by q son Of Mr.. Cowles, who
had seized the end of the rope, giving his
head powerful scientific jerk, and appa,,
rently stunning his neck, and prevented
probably O horrible death. Mr.. Cowles was
carried home severely but not fatally In
iured, according to the report of two ply
sicians. The bull was the next day killed.

| the trail an English party which LETT an
ihour or 40 before. Nothing was known
fher journey until Monday morning, when
Fred. Leibig and Hugh Davany took the
| trail to come to Mariposa. about quar-;
tier of a mile below the :" Hermitage
| they noticed O woman's track In the
snow on the lower side Of the trail, ana
fwandering away from 1t. and knowing tnat
Mrs. Yelverton had attempted to pass OUT
/! the day before, were satisfied the tracks
for her. The tracks led around among the
] trees, bushes, and rocks, q circle Of more
than q mile, and Mrs. Yelyerton was finally
found; wet, chilled, bewildered, and yex-
hausted, about O quarter Of q mile from
where she had left the trail. She had been
out through the storm of Sunday night, and
would probably soon have, persisted but for
fortunate chance. AS 1t was showing again
when she was found, the track in the snow,
which attracted the notice of the gentlemen
named, might not have been visible an
hour later. Nothing was to be seen of her
horse. When the gentlemen had brought
Mrs. Yelverton back to the trail, Mr..
Hutchlngs came along, also on his
way to Mariposa, and she was placed upon
Hutchings's horse and taken to Leidig's
Hotel, while Hutchings went to search for
her horse, which was found mile or more
\ this side of the Hermitage. At Leidigs
Mrs. Yelverton was at times unconcious,
but, with proper restoratiyes and the kind
care of Mrs. Leidig, was sufficiently recov-
cred to be removed towards evening to
Hutchings's, where she had been boarding.
It is supposed Mrs. Yelverton became 80 be-
wildered in the snow.storm Sunday after
moon that she could no longer manage her
horse, and dismounted and tried to walk,
but lost her way, and wandered till lost.
considering that she was five miles from
any house and the other circumstances de-
tailed, it is very fortunate that the mishap
did not prove worse in It's consequences.

FROM WAsH1NeToN-The Presidents !

FROM WAsHIEGToN-The Presidents IN
dian Policy, &C. Washington, Nov. "a
The President in his annual message Will
congratulate Congress on the workings OF
the Indian peace policy, and explain the
manner in which the five millions of dollars
appropriated by Congress in July have been
disbursed, claiming that the annuities
have been correctly paid over to the Indian
tribes, and that all the supplies have been
Durchased by the Interior Department di-
rect, and without the interference of mid
die men or the payment Of commissions.
The President commends the good offices
of the various missionary officials, and eX-
presses his belief that they are working. the
most beneficial results in perfecting per-
manent peace and in the education OF the
Indian children. The estimates of the In
dian service for the next fiscal year are
placed at nearly million less than for the
present year.
A statement all the way from st. Louis,
but which has not been authenticated here,
says that Hon. Henry T. Blow, of that city,
now Minister to Brazil, has been rendered
the mission to England, and is now on his
way from Rio de Janerio to this country to
accept it. From the outgivings OF political
circles it is more probable that the rumor
is true that Gen. Sickles is to be transferred
from Madrid to London.
One of the strangest rumors in diplo-
matte quarters is that which asserts that
Prussia is negotiating with BaeZ for the
purchase Of San Domingo, and that the
United States is q party to the transaction,
on the reciprocal ground that Prussia will
endeayor to secure this country coaling
station on the Mediterranean. The story is
mentioned for what it is worth.
The advices to the Republicans from
Georgia are very confident In their tone,
and claim the Legislature and all but one
Congressman in the delegations of the
Forty-first and Forty-second Congresses.

tween, and the election is to be held for
three days, and the ballot-boxes are to be
carried away from the polls for three nights

CorroN AND LABOR IN THE sOuTH.-
From the New Orleans Times, Nov. Is. IA
very experienced cotton factor, recently
from the adjacent cotton section, reports
the amount Of cotton produced this season
as beyond all precedent: He thinks that
hardly planter in the Mississippi Valley
has raised less than ten bales to the hand,
but doubts if mole than half the product
will be saved, This Is the general opinion.
The reduced rates have had o large influ-
ence to discourage picking. The receipts
in this city begin to gain upon those of last
year, which are now but $4,000 ahead.
Eight or ten days ago they. were $4,000
ahead. The lack Of labor on the levee is O
great drawback upon the river Transporter
fion. Even $50 per month will not COM
mand deck hands for our steamboats,, and
half the cotton and sugar now ready for
shipment cannot be brought to the city for
the want of labor. to load the steamboats,.
This, too, when there are thousands Of idle
negroes hanging about our suburbs and
leYee, the presence Of whom drives of
white laborers. ,..5asss ii

TIE CosT OF VAR" who pays the cost
of WARP" asks contemporary and
answers "The people," This is true so
far as it goes. 1t does not go far enough.
The French people pay the cost of the war
now ragingin one sense. The Germans pay
their proportion of the expense In another
sense. This is only the money cost for
arming, subsisting, paying, and maintain
ing the armies. Heavy as it may be, it IS
less than halfthe real expense Of such war
! The loss of men cannot be thus estimated.
The Philadelphia Day, referring to this SUBJ
| ject, remarks ,-.. j. =. =.
"The ,pauperjzatlon of many hundred
thousands, probably, may be counted as q
cash loss, but it is difficult to estimate It..
The increase of poor rates will not show
| the actual loss, because so much increase OF
poverty is likewise a double, sometimes q
treble withdrawal of hands from industrial
pursuits. Still another aspect Of the cost
of war exists in the conversion Of nation
of producers into consumers; and this
damage is incalcu1able. Industry is now
paralyzed throughout France. Its great
manufactures are closed, and their opera
tives are either idle or under arms. The
wages paid these operatives in good times
must sum up large total. This total went
into the channels Of trade, and greatly as
sisted national progress. All that is over,
and France and Germany are at a stand
still.
"But there is loss which extends be-
yond the countries now at war, and is not
generally reckoned into. the bill of war
costs. We allude to the loss of custom 10
the producing interests of other nations.
Much has been said about the profit likely
to accrue to the United States and England
from the Franco-Prussian war. II the war
is to profit us as O nation, the fact is yet to
become apparent. Our exports have not
increased, neither have those of Great
Britain. The fact is that France and Prus-
STA have no money to. expend for anything
but the appliances of war. Their energies
are put to their utmost tension to
carry on war upon large scale, while
| they are literally earning nothing. They
will buy nothing not absolutely necessary
to sustain the struggle. Hence they buy
arms and war munitions of US and do not
buy the staples Of commerce. England is
selling nothing to France and Germany save
arms, powder, and coal. OF course those
belligerents will need bread by-and-by, and
then our exports will increase. But at pre-
sent, and up to this time, the Franco-Prus-
sian war has been damage to us as pro-
ducing people. The same is probably true
as regards England. Thus it will be seen
war costs heavily to others as we'll as to
belligerents, as may be made clear to all
who will be at the trouble to reflect as to
the consequences to trade were every other
nation save this at war"
