he turned toward the house she returned
and tried in every way to prevent him from
doing SO. He then remarked that her colt
was not with her, a fact he had not noticed
before it was quite dark. 1t occurred to him
then to follow her, which he did So soon
as she saw he was doing so she ran off be-
fore him, stopping every few yards turning
around to see that he was still following,
then agrin running on keeping up her call
ing, until she reached a distant part of the
field, where she stopped at an old prospect

commenced rubbing against him, and drew
his attention to the. hole, whore he soon dis
covered the colt. 1t appears it had slipped
into it and was unable to get out, and the
mare had taken this method to obtain as
sistance. Being unable to get it out alone.
Mr.. Fletcher went for some of bis neigh

were taking the little fellow out the mare
manifested the most intense delight, and
seemed almost beside herself with Joy; and
afterwards, when the men had got out Of
the hole, she came up to Mr.. Fletcher, and
placing her nose on bis shoulder gave every
sign OF gratitude that human mother
might under similar circumstances. Who

The New Chicago-Anniversar of the
Great Fire.

CHICAGO, October 9.-To-day has been
observed here by many people as sort of
holiday, and the streets OF the rebuilt dis
trict have been unusually full of people IN
their best attire, viewing the wonderful
change that has been wrought since this
day a year ago. Hundreds came IN from ON
the country, from various railroads, and
added to the throng Of citizens who
crowded every th0roughtare.
The Board of Trade held no session, as
to- day had been fixed as the one on winch
they would take possession of their new
hall, in the magnificent building erected by
the Chamber Cf Commerce upon the site OF
the old one At the hour of noon the mem
bers formed in procession in front OF the
hall they have occupied since the fire,
and marched to their new hall, headed
by brass band. The hall, which is aAuch
larger than the old one, was de&d%eiy
packed, not only the members OF she
board being present, but hundreds OF
prominent citizens in other branches ct
business. The platform was occupied by
the officers and members and various
committees of other boards of trade. Mayor
Medill and many old well known citizens
were also seated there. In the gallery were
stationed the Vass Light Guard band and
the Chicago Glee Club, Exercises com
menced by playing Home, Sweet Home"
by the band. and singing of "AuId Lang
Syne by the Glee Clue. Daniel A. Jones,
Esq, president of the Chamber Of Com
merce, then formally transferred the new
hall to the Board of Trade in neat and
brief speech, in which he. reviewed the
work ofrebuilding from the commencement,
when, less than a year ago, the di-
reetors of the board met and re-
solved to replace its old chamber by
one which should be superior in every
respect to the day of it's completion. He
awarded great credit to the contractors for
the various branches of the work, for the
energy and skill they had displayed, and
remarked as a matter of congratulation that
no accident had befallen any one connected
with the work. He closed by expressing
hope that no act of the members of the
board would ever tend to clog the wheels of
commerce, but that every effort would be
made to facilitate the constantly increasing
trade of the city.
Speeches were made by several, and the
ceremonies were kept up several hours

If a report, not yet authenticated, can be
trusted, a deposit of silver has been found
in Colorado promising to equal, in !, extent ext nj!
Nevada. A dispatch from Denver, dated
the twenty fifth nltimo, says; "a wonder
full discovery was made recently six miles
west of Caribou of an enormous silver
ledge, or system of lodges, SO locked and
woven t'gether as to be practically one

width, and can be clearly traced over five
miles, carrying ore the entire distance that
essays SIS to $1,000 per ton. The surround
ing formation is primary granite, and the
ore carries galena, black and gray sulphu-
rets, etc. A large number of men are al
ready at work upon it, and it is the sensa-
ton of the whole mining region. In the
Marshall tunnel, near Georgetown, a vein
of solid mineral was struck on Saturday
1t is thirty inches wide. Great activity ex-
lists everywhere III the mines, and reports
come from all quarters of larger yields

Garner. Barclay, when on the scaffold, de.
cIared he was guilty of murder, and was

arms and legs were pinioned, the black cap
was placed over his head. and in a second
more his body was swinging in the air The
body was almost still for a second after the
fall of the trap, but soon 7ibrated slowly
backward and forward. On being touched
by a surgeon in attendance, his whole body
shook as if with a violent cold. After hang
ing nearly twelve minutes he was declared
dead, and was delivered to the surgeons.

The English Coal Famine.

A writer in the London FInanctY, who
has been making a tour of the large coal
producing counties in England, gives a
gloomy account OF the business prospect.
The collieries, he said, were full of orders
and contracts, many OF them old ones and
at low prices, while the men everywhere
were more inclined Tor recreation than for
work. In fact, they seem to manage maj
tiers so well that where they know their
masters have pressing contracts, they take
care that they are kept in arrears. Under
such circumstances there is not colliery
proprietor who will enter into any new con
tracts, even at the present enhanced prices,
and it is the opinion of the correspondent
that the time is rapidly approaching when
great many industrial establishments
will be stopped for want Of coal In many
instances it has ceased to be question of
price. In some localities coal is not to be
had in quantities at any figure, and often
when manufacturer wants one or two
hundred tons week from a colliery, it is
only as a great favor, and because he has
been q good customer for many years, that
twenty or fifty tons week are given him,
AS to taking any new customer, even if
they come with cash in hand, no coal pro-
prietor thinks of looking at them. This is
about the real state of things in all the coal
districts of England, and it is reported also
of Scotland.

A New Orleans Claim

A Washington special to the New York
Herald says:
The Southern Claims Commission viii re-
sumo its sessions On Tuesday next During
the sumner vacation the commissioners EN-
ploAe their leisure time in examining and
preparing reports on some fifteen hundred
separate claims, supported by oral testi-
mony from four to ten witnesses in each
case, and taken by United States special
commissioners at various points III the late
discretionary States. Tic first case to be
heard next week is that of deceased
wealthy citizen of New Orleans who be-
queathed one-tbird Of his entire property,
including valid claim of $50, 900 against
the government, to the State educational
fund Of louisiana The majority Of the
new cases to be heard this fall are for
amounts above $4,000 each. The forth
coming report OF the commissioners, it is
expected, viii shed some light upon the
methods Of fraud adopted BY schemers in
the prosecution Of claims.

We copy this singular notice from the

Rev. j. 7. Davidson publishes elsewhere
card stating that he will not accept the
nomination for the Legislature. We are
glad of this. Mr.. Davidson is too pure a
man and too efficient as minister of the
gospel to go to such place as the LegisIa-
ture Of this State. He would be maligned,
slandered, and every thing possible charged
against him until he would find that be
heretofore had known nothing of the sad
realities of this world. He is a pure and a
persuasive minister. who accomplishes more
by his gentIeness and amiability than by
his positiveness. In such place almost any
other man could accomplish more than Mr.
Davidson. He is universally reverencod by
all whether in or out of the church, and we
hope will remain so by keeping out Of poll

From Tndia in n Small Boat.

peared III one OF the Calcutta papers, stating
that the writer intends to make the voyage
from Calcutta to England, by the canal. in
q small boat thirty-two feet long, eight feet
across the beam, and about two and half
tons burden, schooner rugged, fore and aft
sails, and full deck. When the writer pur-
chased the boat she had been condemned
as useless. He had her repaired and en-
gagged crew Of five Lascars, all of whom
deserted him when the time came to make
bis experimental trip to sea. Left without
a crew, he resolved to put to sea himself
with dog, and he now processes to have
gone up the rivers into some Of the widest
parts of the country-in all, during twelve
months, not less than 1900 miles-With the
sole companionship OF his dog. He says he
has enjoyed the life, and that, to all appear
ance, his dog has enjoyed it equally, espe-
cially where there was occasion for quiet
meditation in lonely scenes. He voyaged
through the malarious Soonderbunds with

years Of age when the war broke out, and
who served in the Twenty-second Ohio, has
fallen heir to $4,000 by the death Of his
grandmother in this city. But George VII
liams can't be found. Since three days
after the capture Of Memphis, at which be
was present, nothing has been seen or heard
of him. He was not killed or wounded. so
far as his comrades could learn, and the
rumors that he had deserted or had been
drowned could not be traced to any reliable
source. In the search for him there, it was
found reported-and the report was be-
lieved by mauy-that he had been killed in
saloon in Memphis, in the Irving block,
near jackson square, by a citizen, in the
course of a quarrel about the capture of the
city. His relatives, however, always had
an idea that he had deserted and followed
Horace Greeley'8 advice TO young men.
He was nearly six feet high, had black hair
and eyes and a prominent nose, and cult
waited long whiskers. Here is chance for
a Tiehborne case on a small scale. Will
liams, or any one wishing to personate him,
can obtain further information from the

Half century ago a Jewish merchant,
Isaac Pedro Corne, lived at Grenada, Spain,
in a house built at the base of lofty rock.
He devoted himself to marrying and making
money, and succeeded so well in both shat
he amassed large fortune, and took unto
himself seven wives, not polygamously, bat
in succession, as one after the other was
transferred from his arms to the grave It
was his habit to bury his spouses at night
and unattended. 1t was probably this fact
that caused the suspicious that finally drove
him from the city. He married again twice,
and finally, having buried his nine wives,
he was buried himself at Vera Cruz in 1856.
His sons are said to be now living in Amer
lea. His story had well nigh been forgotten
in Greneda, when a few weeks since some
workmen employed in repairing his old
house discovered a subterranean passage,
l35 feet long by seven and a half wide, at
the end OF which we're seven female skele-
tons. Medical experts say that they must
have been placed there during the modern
Bluobeard's life. Grenada is properly ex-
cited. The skeletons have been taken
away, but if anybody doubts the story, he
can go and see the cave.

says:
A Number OF the most prominent Repub-

ator Henry Wilson. the Republican eandi-
date for Vice President of the United
States, at the Southern Hotel. The Senator
was accompanied by Hon. Henry T. Blow,
chairman Of the Republican State Commit
tee, and G. W. Ford, collector of United
States revenue, who introduced the various
visitors as they passed up. They were re-
ceived with the quiet and simple urbanity
which mark the manner of Senator Wilson,
and shaken hands with cordiality never
to be forgotten that made them forever his
friends. The Senator was simply and
tastefully attired in a suit of solemn black
which set off to advantage his dignihed and
senatorial figure. He is tall and somewhat
portly, but his face sends forth from his
black eyes, which are full Of light, a most
kindly, simple and benevolent expression.
His hair is slightly silvered with approach
ing age, and is simply brushed back from
his forehead, which is strongly marked
with lines OF thought and inCellectuality
He is in short a kindly, generous, simple,
grand old gentleman who draws instinct,
lively the love and admiration of all with
whom he comes in contact. The reception
was purely spontaneous and informal.
