SEEING A SISTERS APPAn1TIoN, AND
rnEN HEARING OF HER SUDDEN DEATH

SEEING SISTERS APPARITIoN, AND
TEEN HEARING OF her SUDDEN DEATH
a Young lady from New York has been
visiting relatives in this city during the
past two weeks, and had made arrange
ments to return home last Friday night,
having strong impression upon her
mind that she must go home without
delay. For the sake of the company of
relative on her journey home. however
she was induced to postpone her depart.
ure until Monday evening last. On
sunday morning, after quiet nights
rest, she was suddenly awakened between
and o'clock. and saw figure dis.
tinct'y, or was convinced she did. stand
ing IN her room, near the door, lookin &
toward her. The figure bore an exact
resemblance to sister she left at hom,,
IN New York in her usual health. The
young lady got up and went toward the
apparltion, and it disappeared. She
then opened O window and looked out,
but seeing nothing more of the figure or
anything else unusual, she returned to
her room and fell asleep again. In
short time, she Was awakened and saw
the apparition of her sister again. With
the same life-like appearance and in the
same position as before. She got up
again, and as she advanced toward it, it
receded from her approach and disap-
peared as before. Again she looked
about from room to room and out of the
window, but saw nothing more Of it.
Being now too much excited to sleep
longer, she dressed herself and remained
sitting up in her chamber waiting for
daylight. Her uncle, who is an early
riser. heard her moving about the room,
and on his inquiring why she WAS up SO
early. she related her experience rs stated
above, and when the family had all risen
it was the subject Of general remark and
comment. On Sunday noon, the young
lady received despatch from New York,
Informing her that her sister had died
enddenly at the very hour the apparition
had appeared in her chamber.

thief named Austin, 1t is said. who is
awaiting trial. On Tuesday, his wife
visited him, and seafph of his cell
afterward brought to light three files OF
peculiar design, g saw of the finest steel.
and steel wire for picking locks, which
were secreted in the walls of the apart

anticipation ef further results. On Fri.
day, she camo ogaiN with q roll of but

was also found; it was examined, and
under the thin covering of paper on the
reverse side, small steel blade, fled
like saw, steel spring of a watch,
shaped likewise, coil of copper wire,
with a magnet attached. and three long
needles, were found. This was sufficient
evidence of her completely in liberating
her husband, aud she was immedintely
arrested and imprisoned. Austin, alias
Williams, has been recognized by the
detectives of Trenton, Harrisburg, Lam
caster and Philadelphia as the leader of
one OF the most notorious gangs of horse
and wagon thieves that has Infested the
Middle States for years. He escaped
from Moyamensing prison in 1871, aud
Still hns three years to serve.

THE srnrKE or THE woRKIsenES.

A certain class Of journals, whose interests
are the interests Of the employers, are Just
now printing, with more or less doleful com
ment articles pointing out the loss in dollars
and cents that the forty or ffty thousand
men who have struck for less hours Of labor
In New York have suffered. One Of these
journals cypheTS as follows; Twenty thou
sand workingmen have each lost three dol
lars per day-sixiy thousand dollars. Sixty
thousand dollars per day are three hundred
and sixty thousand dollars per week, and
one million four hundred and forty thousand
dollars per month, and so on, according 10
the Captain Bobadll rule. This Is one way
Of looking al The question. Capital may de-
plore Il, but Il Is none Of capitals concern.
II the wOrkingmen choose 10 strike, they
have clear and indisputable right 10 do so.
Capital does not consult labor when It desires
10 20 In or to 60 out Of business. Tho moral
lesson which the strike has taught not only
capital, but labor Itself, far outbalances tho
loss of even q million dollars.
The present labor conyulslon has taught
the world one OF the most beautiful lessons
that the world has ever learned the kiuship
Of humanity. During the last twelve months
our thinkers, Legislators, Journalists, in two
continents, have been indulging In a good
deal OF sentiment at the spectacle OF the
United States and England meeting quietly
and peaceably to settle grave International
difficulties that In a ruder aud hotter age
would have been settled at the swords point.
Il has been pointed 10 rs one Of the Christian
triumphs Of the age; In eonsonanee with the
spirit of the new civilization that has come
upon the earth with the railroad and the
telegraph and the printing press. This New
York strike, ecndemned as "barbAric, and
90 forth, has taught US, without the lnteryen-
ton OF senates or parllAments or ministers,
q lesson much moro instructive, much more
slgnIncant OF the era that Is coming, OF thS
peace and the republlcAnism whose day Is
beginning to dawn over ali the world.

Tho meeting OF the elements OF opposl-

senator Rice, OF Arkansas, who Is 80 little
known In the Tribune ONCE, that In its re-
port OF the conference he Is called by that
journal an ex-senator, came next, and pledged
Arkansas for Greeley and Brown. The
amount Of pledglng aud promising at this
remarkable gathering was truly ludierous.
Fowler, who could not be elected aldermAh
In Tennessee, declared that he would carry
that State for the Cincinnati nominations by
one hundred aud twenty or twC hundred aud
twenty thousand majority, we forget which,
but II was somewhere IN that nelgh6orhood.

AT THE CONSULTATION In New York Mr..
Trumbull Is reported as having said; "lf
man Of acknowledged reputation could be
brought into the field, he CrrumbulD would
support him; but, under the existing state Of
affairs, he saw no option but 10 support
Greeley." Then, In Mr.. Trumbull's opinion,
Greeley Is not man OF Acknowledged repu-
tation;" which Is rather a curious cornmen-
tary on the entire reform m moyement. The
leading reformer admits that their candidate
Is not q man Of unquestlonable character
that he would like to support some one else,
but that II Is utterly useless to expect that
the reform ticket cen bo made so respectable
that 1t will command the confidence Of the
country. Mr.. Trumbun has given Mr.. Gree

Tho second Legislative Assembly Of the
District OF Columbia adjourned yesterday,
after its regular siKty-days' sossion. The Legis.
lature finished nearly all the important busI.
ness necessary 10 the sue cossful working Of
the government for the present year, and
passed number Of laws Of general nature.
Tho members have labored diligently during
the entire time, but, as isusual In such casca,
the appropriation bills were deferred until
tho closing days Of the session, aud during
the last week what may be considered the
most important work Of the session has been
accomplished. Within that period the mem
bers Of both banches Of the Legislature have
been constant and faithfulin their attendance
aud efforts to close up tho necessary work.
The session has been very Harmonious and
satisfactory, and the work done speaks well
for the ability Of those composing the two
houses.
