years. The hall, it is learned, was densely

who was in his office ut the time, he caused
the church and fire bells to be rung, and soon
most of the able-bodied citizens were on the
spot, and went to work earnestly in clearing
away the debris, working the greater part of
the night. The colored people, it is said, were
much frightened. 1t was reported last even

ruins dead, and some twenty wounded

REMARKABLE DISCOVERY AT HUALAPAI.-A
recent arrival from the Hualapai district
brings the intelligence of the discovery of an
old deserted tunnel at a point about ten miles
from Mineral Park. The implements used
by it's cXcavators were found within it. The
tunnel and its surroundings is said to have
an ancient appearance about it. 1t is sup
posed to have been worked by the early
Jesuit fathers, to whom rich silver mines
were known and worked by them. The San
Gabriel Mission Church bells are made prin-
cipaly of silver, which is supposed to have
been obtained from the mines worked by the
Padres. Hitherto it has been generally be-
licred that those mines existed either in the
adjacent San Gabriel range or else in the Sun
Bcrnardino mountains. Whether or not the
newly discovered tunnel is one of the old
mines of the Padres, ii is not improbable that
its workers were compelled to abandon it on
account of the hostility of the aborigines.-

PETERsBuRa, April 8, 1872.
Two very distressing domestic i,ereave-
ments were suffered yesterday in the city.
One Of these was the death of Mrs. A. i.
Weisiger, wife Of Hon. s. s. Weisiger, of this
judicial circuit. Mrs. Weisiger had been In
low health for some time past, but her death,
believe, was unexpected. The funeral SER
vices will take place tomorrow at Tabb-
Street Presbyterian church. when the re-
maths viii be removed to Richmond for in
terment.
The other affection was the exceedingly
sudden death Of Mrs. Lucy Riches, which
occurred at the dinner-table. This lady had
been sick for some time. but was believed to
DC greatly improved, and had been going
about the street as usual. Sitting at the table
after dinner, she suddenly complained Of q
pain in her head. She was laid down on a
sofa in the room, and expired almost imme-
diately. -
The lecture of Professor Owens at he.
chanics Hall last night was largely attended,
and passed off very pleasantly, though by
some mischance the slides Of the stereoscop-
tlcon were derangcd and confused. These
lectures on scientific subjects, popularized to
| the capacity and attention OF q promiscuous
audience, have been the means of diffusing a
vast amount of valuable and practical infor-
nation. The Mechanics Benevolent Asso-
citation. by whom these lectures were devised
and given free of Abundance, deserve great
credit for their public spirit. The lectures
are always well attended. .

may be the supreme necessity to save the
party from decentralization and defeat. He
declared that the systematic ostracism OF

that he will encourage any meeting Of Re.

it to act for the safety and success of the

Bartholomew's famous aphorism that he
"neyer knew a Legislature that was worth a
continental is aptly illustrated in Virginia,
the Legislature Of that State never having
rcpealcd the law which makes the poisoning
of dog pententiary offence. What makes
this statement interesting now is the fact that
large number of Virginia dogs have been
poisoned by Virginia farmers, whose sheep
the dogs have killed. The prospect seems TO
be that the agricultural districts will soon be
largely represented in the penitentiary.-
