In the last car was our superintendent,
tall, lean Yankee, fully six feet two inches
iu height, and about the same height as
the murdered Kentuckian.
1t so happened that he occupied the
same seat as the Kentuckian had done,
and | was also in my old place in the bag
gage car. When exactly in the same
place in the tunnel just when the engineer
had put on steam to carry us through, the
bell-rope again ratified, and the engineer
whisted for the brakes Sprnging to my
feet, ran to the rear car, firmly persuaded
that now | could solve this mystery.
Reaching it, found the superintendent
sitting back in his seat, with his hand to
his throat, gasping for breath One or
two passengers were attempting to be of
some use to him, but he could only moan
aud hold tightly to his throat.
At last he recovered sufficiently to take
his hand away, and then l saw the light,
| livid blue mark which had seen before,
in almost the exact similar position, on
the neck of the murdered Kentuckian.
As the superintendent got over the shock
he proceeded to tell us how he received the
mark and of its fearful effects. He had
been asleep, and was awakened by the
train entering the tunnel. Half asleep and
half awake, he stepped to the car door and
stood looking, or trying to look, through
the door window.
Suddenly, and without any warning, he
felt rope slipped under his throat, and
at that moment, the engine giving jerk,
he was thrown violently into corner of
the car. -
The mystery was solved at last. The
train, as | have said, entered the tunnel at
slow rate of speed and without the.use Of
steam, the grade at the entrance forcing
the cars together and giving them sufficient
Roadway. At this time the bell-rope
which of course, has to be much Longer

are close together, to allow sufficient length

The efforts of this country to bring
about settlement between Spain and the
four republics of western South America,
with which the former power was some
years in active warfare, are partially APP
proved by an armistics to be signed at
Washington 1t is some time since the
Spanish fleet was repulsed in its assaults
and then recalled by the stress of civil
war. But the hostilitiss thus suspended
have never been formally reconciled, and
the steps to be taken now inaugurate a
measure of much Importance to the pros
perity of the republics.

IS. C) Republican says: "Tariff, civil
service reform, and kindred questions, will
undoubtedly have something to do with
1872, but, after all, these will be of minor
showing in that contest. The great ques-
tons, talk as we may now, will be the very
same, modified Of course by events, but
the same questions that have been great in
the past--on the one hand the carrying
forward by the Republicans of the grand
policy of giving equal rights to al, of meet
ing all the obligations of the nation,
whether 10 the bestowment and securing
of civil rights to all her children, colored or
white, or whether in paying the national
indebtedness--and on the other hand the
Democratic party fighting, not for conquest
of ideas, not for progress in liberty and
fair play, not for placing high the credit
of the nation, but simply for the place oil
power.
'In that contest affairs in the South are
to be the one prominent question. All
others will dwarf beside this. The Demo.

swer Looking at this matter as dispas
sionately as we can, we believe that thu
Democrats, even if they ever had chance
of winning in 1872, have flung tina
chance away by the point of the dagge

The Albany Laao Journal tells this story :
"a witness was examined before Judge,
in a case, who required him to repeat the
precise, words spoken. The witness hesi-
tated until he riveted the attention of the
entire court upon him; then, fixing his
eyes earnestly upon the judge, began !:
May it please your honor, you lie, you
steal, and you get your living by stealing.
The face of the Judge Redeemed, and he inn
mediately said: Turn to the jury, sir T"
Mrs. Kneas, of Cleveland, had more
bed-bugs than she had room for, so she
soaked the bedstead in benzine. One OF
the bed-bugs struck something hard and
struck fire, igniting the bepzine, burning
the house, and killing every bug on the
premises. She says she can recommend
benzine for moving buildings.
Paris now well illustrates the evils and
dangers of an ignorant population. The

The cotton crop now arriving at the
cotton ports Of the South promises to be
the largest since the famous one of 1862
go. The Savannah Republican, basing its
estimate on the number of bales already
received says that the crop will reach
$3.50, 600 to 100000 bales. BY reason
of its increased railroad connections, Savan-
nah is fast taking position as one of the
principal cotton ports of the South. This
large crop establishes the facts that the
freedman is willing to work, and that the
land, being divided among large number,
is more carefully cultivated.
