The Louisville Ledncl. SAYS:

In another column we publish an account
of the sad fate which befell Andrew J.
Newell, printer who left New Orleans to
cruise among the islands of Lake Pontchar-
train, in search of treasures buried by
Latitte's pirates. Newell was an adven-
furious man, who has had more hairbreadth
escapes than usually falls to the lot of the
craft. On one occasion he narrowly escaped
drowning by the overflow of Last Island,
and on another, while riding in Indiana his
horse was killed beneath him by stroke OF
lightning. and the rider left astride of the
corpse in the road, unhurt but somewhat
bewildered. The writer of this paragraph
heard this same story of Latitte's buried
wealth from Newelrs lips nearly twenty
time that he had something like "a bee in
his bonnet"

This is from the Washington Republican

In the month of May, 1868, the steamer
Golden Rule, bound for Aspinwall, was
wrecked on Rancador reef, in the Gulf OF
Mexico, and proved a total loss. Among
the baggage was an iron chest containing
81 1000, 900 in legal tender notes, and $50, 600
in seven-thirty bonds. from the United
States Treasurer. and en- route for the sub
treasury at San Francisco. Every effort
was made by the wreckers to secure the
treasures. but without avail. After the
lapse of six years the Secretary of the
Treasury has called upon the first con
troler for his opinion rs to what disposition
should be made of the account, and in reply
he states that it should be treated as de
struved money, and the amount lost so
credited on the books of the treasury.

The Washington Star says: Mrs. DR..
Lockwood and her husband, accompanied
by another couple, also advocates of equal
rights. walked into Fugitt's restaurant yes
terday, and, stating that they wanted some
oysters, the proprietor invited them to
private room, which they declined, saying,
oh, no, we want to do just as the men do
They went to the raw box-the quartette
of them-and ate raw oysters until the four
got outside of two dozen raw, when they
called for four glasses of ale, and drank
them down as though they had been used
to oysters and ale. They then walked out
like any other man."

Senator Chandler some time ago bought
OF the State of Michigan the large tract Of
prairie lands lying near Lansing. He has
done much in the way of improving it. He
has had it ditched, and now raises an i'm
mense stock of hay from it. He is intro
ducing upon it some fine stock. He has
lately purchased of Mr.. Walters, of Balti-
more, the celebrated imported Percheron

to be the best draft stallion in America. He
is sixteen hands high. weighs one thousand
eight hundred pounds, and in color is a
dapple gray. He will walk five miles an
hour with load of two tons.
