With reference to the constitutional
amendment recently officially declared
adopted in Virginia, the Richmond En-
Qttirer says:
" It's effect is to leave the constitution 81
lent upon the subject of lisury and inter-
est, and it will therefore hereafter be in
the power of the General Assembly to pre-
scribe any rate, however high or low. In
stead of being regulated by the organic
law, it is hereafter to be regulated by stat
ute law. The statutes now in existence
prescribe per cent. as legal interest,

MARRIED BUT NOT DoMEsTIC.-It seems
very hard for women artists who marry to
leave the stage, or very hard for their hus-
bands to permit them to do 80. The rich
er they are the more difficult the task.
Patti had plenty of money, but when she
consummated her engagement with Caux,
she did not throw up single other one.
1t was thought Nilsson had money enough
to live comfortably on, but it seems not.

went lntO IL because OF the confidence they
had in Mr.. Greeley. -
Mr.. May is now in this city without en-
ploynlent. He certainly makes out strong
case against Mr.. Greeley and very freeley
says If he ever gets back to New York he
intends going to see Honest Horace" and
tell him what he thinks about him. Mr..
May can not reconcile Greeley's failure to
write to the colonists or his failure to in
vestigate into the matter in their behalf,
with honesty and good faith. 49,.
The Warm Springs property has been
sold and bought back for fifteen thousand
dollars. TWAS valued at seventy thousand,
and Mr.. May says the officers claimed to

Judge STANLEY Matthews.

The New York Post reioices in the Cliff
ton speech of Judge Matthews, and says of
him:
"He may certainly be said to be unbi-
ased in the matter. A free-trader, a sup
porter of the Cincinnati movement, a civil
service reformer, in favor of amnesty and
decentralization, originally opposed to the
reelection of Grant, and, above all, not a
politician, he earnestly advocates the re-
come to the choice between him and Mr..
Greeley. His arguments are of that solid
kind which will stand the wear and tear
even of a campaign like this" He was
temporary chairman of the Cincinnati Con-
yentiOn.

In the active pursuit of pleasure or gain, the
inestimable blessing of health is too often for
gotten, until disease is firmly seated, and the
fact only realized by great bodily and mental
suffering. The Liver is the vulnerable point IN
most persons, and the disarrangement of the or
gan involves almost the whole system; hence
the reason why under Liver diseases there is
enumerated such number of Affections, and
we claim the Simmons Liver Regulator to be a
remedy for them all. s MMa

ANNA DICKINSON ON ZOE.
A Foolish woman's Obstinacy

The New York correspondent of the
Chicago Tribune writes:
Discussing, the other day, the question
of mans and woman's promptness and
punctuality, was told the following story,
illustrative of the determination of the
feminine mind to keep an engagement.
1t was last winter, | think, that Miss
Anna E. Dickinson lectured at Newburgh,
on bitter cold night. She was adver-
tised to repeat her lecture the following
evening in this city, and learned in the
morning that the river at the former place
was locked up-frozen over indeed, though
no one had the courage to venture across.
The ice was not strong enough to bear a
horse and sleigh, and, above and below the
town, was so thick that to get boat over
was impossible.
Miss Dickinson declared she would cross
the Hudson, and offered handsome price
to any man who would assist her in accom-
plishing her object. Several stalwart fell
lows whom she had consulted assured her
that it was worth ones life to attempt the
passage, aud fatty refused to aid her, until
she expressed her resolution to go alone.
This so shamed them that they finally con-
sented to get sleigh and try to push her
across 70 Fishkill, where she could take the
down train for New York, and reach
Cooper Institute in time for her lecture.
The mercury was in the vicinity of zero
and the biting wind, sufficient to freeze the
marrow il ones bones, was sweeping down
the Hudson. The three men bundled up
the little lady in blankets and robes, cover
ing her so completely that she could neither
see nor walk, and placed her, as if she had
been baby, in the sleigh. One went be-
fore and two behind, and off they started
with their bundle of feminine resolution.
The way was long; the air was bitter; the
blast was rough. The men worked like
Trojans; but they did not succeed in reach
ing the opposite bank for nearly three hours,
when, after many narrow escapes, they
picked up their charge, frozen through al
her wrappings, almost stiff, and carried
to the railway station. They were too
late for the train. 1t was fully half an
hour beforethe fair lecturer was sufficiently
thawed to be able to stand on her feet, and
even then she was so cold and in such pain
that she was obliged to pace the room for
more than four hours until the next train
arrived.
Her glorious energy and flexible resolu-
ton, however, carried her through. She
reached the city about nine o. clock-her
lecture had been announced for eight
when she drove at once to the Institute,
without a morsee of food, and still suffer
ing intensely from cold. She delivered
the lecture at any rate; but she could
scarcely stand the while, and was SO per-
turbed in mind from what she had suffered
as scarcely to be able to collect her
thoughts.
Some one, speaking of this instance of
heroism to Henry Wary Beecher, not long
after, asked him if he thought any man
would do what Anna Dickinson had done
for the sake of keeping an engagement.
''No," replied Beecher, 81 don't think any
man would; and, if he would, he'd be a

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 30-Every In
dian has abandoned the reservation of
Camp Mcdowell in Arizona. Depredations
are going on in all directions. The troops
in anticipation of the arrival of Gen. How
ard and fresh peace negotiations, rem ain
idle in camp.
TOPEKA, KANSAS, Aug. 31.-The Com
n1OnaoedLth has the following startling In
dian news from Colorado. Mr.. E. 81.
Stanley, of Fort Larned, arrived in this
city last evening from Denver. He reports
that last Monday Government train con-
sisting of thirty-six mule teams loaded
with army supplies for Fort Lyon was pro-
ceeding along Dry Creek, between Carson
City and Fort Lyon, Colorado, under the
comm and of Steve Bryan, Wagon Master.
While in the Valley of Dry Creek the
train was mired in the sand. While thus
detained band of two hundred Arraphal
warriors under command of their Chief,
Little Raven, made an attack which equals
in outrage and ferocity any annals of In
dian massacres. The wagons were burn
ed and all the contents that could be car
ried off were taken, consisting Of bacon,
etc. The mules were run off. Fifteen
men belonging to the train were wounded
or dead on the bloody field. Mr.. Bryan
was
Skinned Alive from Head 20 Foot
by the ssvages. Besides these fifteen men
we're missing. They are supposed to have
been carried into captivity. The train was
under escort of Lieut.. Mcfarland, of the
sixth United States Cavalry with 100 men,
but being nine miles in the rear at the time
of the massacre no protection could be
offered. Mr.. Stanley was with the escort,
and when it arrived at the terrible scene
the savages were just retiring over the hill
beyond, whirling their tomahawks and
shouting in mad glee over their ill-gotten
gains
