1t is gratifying to find that the Chicago Re-
lief and Aid Society has now abundant re-
sources to meet all the wants of the present
Winter. The liberal gifts of the nation have
been greatly aided by the mild weather of the
past month and the foreboding that the hOr-
rors of the fire might be succeeded by those
attendant on scanty supply of food and
shelter, have been happily dssipated.

The more ignorant followers of Holy Mother
Church in Philadelphia have been undergoing par
oxvsms of terror this week. on account of prophecy
made in Rome in the beginning of this century, by
venerable servant of God, named Anna Maria Iaigl
that there should be three dark days in tho present
month during which neither gas nor candles
would be of the slightest effect unless
blessed beforehand. The rush for consecrated
dips has been so great in consequence. and the
excitement so widespread that Bishop Wood has
found it necessary TO issue a circular letter 10
calm his flock. AS the prophecy assures us that the
darkness will extend all the world. we do not
sec why the Philadelphians want to make a pro-
vincia affair of the miracle, unless they have es-
pecial doubts to the quality of their gas. Inc
Bishop prudently hedges little in his manifesto.
Anna Maria he says certainly did die IN the odor
of sanctity and if she said there were to be three
dark days, dark they must be. 1t is the Bishops
opinion however that she said nothing of the KIND,
and he bids his people be calm and wait the decision
of the Church about it, which will probably be gwen
after February. The good Father having thus made
himself and the prophetic reputation OF the Church
safe in case the weather remains fair, assures MS
flock that there is no knowing what may happen,
and that if "such an extraordinary scourge should
VISIT u.s. it will assuredly most severely punish
those who desolate their homes by debauchery and
drunkenness" Now. it is very proper for the Bishop
to scare his drunken church members whenever he
can; but we fancy tho Philadelphia bulies and
repeaters are too old children to be scared by the
bugaboo of darkness which shall be thicker
in their houses than their neiBhbors'. We
may laugh at such superstition III Philadelphia
but what shall we say of one OF our own lead
ing contemporaries, who devotes column after column
to stating gravely how lady friend of the editor
had her spectaces jerked from her pocket by dead
sister who did not like the make of themf where
no gods are, specters rule" We prefer the Phila-
delpha idiocy, however: Anna Maria could be util-
lied by the Signal Service Company, if they could
but get hold of her.

Wisconsin River Improvement.
From the Oshkosh Northwestern.

From the Oshkosh Northwestern.
Accounts from the government
work on the Wisconsin River are
very encouraging We have in our
possession private letters, not intend
ed for publication, which show that
the esult of the present plau of CD.
erations is succeeding beyond all ex.
pectations. The system of wing
dams, which by many considered a
doubtful experiment, under the SUI
perintendence of Capt. Nadir. U. S.
Engineer, has already justified the
predictions of its projectors, and
demonstrated the scientific and prac-
tical qualifications of the Engineers.
The steamer Winneconne, which
draws feet inches of water, will
soon when the water reaches it's loto-
est stage, make the trip between
Portage and the Mississippi. A
channel fully 3 feet deep at the lows
est stage of water will be secured
the present season. There will be
DO difficulty another season in max
ing 8 TO 6 foot channel the whole
length of the Wisconsin River below
Portage. Even the foot channel in
the Visions U will make the through
route passable from Prairie du Chen
to Green Bay allowing that we shall
have the same depth of channel in
the Fox River SO that we may
now call the Improvement a success,
with the understanding that the
Government shall lay out annually a
reasonable sum to continue and keep
in repair the work. The highest os-
innate for the completion of the dams
and improvements on the Wisconsin
River is stated at only $500, 900,
which is much below the original IS
innate.
There can be but little doubt that
Congress will make the necessary
appropriations for the purpose; pro
Utded, our members from this state
unite 40 heretofore in pressing the
matter on its attention. At the ses-
sion just closed, it will be remem ber-
ed, through the efforts of Mr.Sawyer,
Commerce, supported by our whole
delegations AN appropriation OF $l45,~
600 was made for the purchase by
the government of the franchises of
the Green Bay and Mississippi Cnnal
Company, in accordance with the
award of the commissioners or arbi-
traitors. Although the amount is
considered too small by said company,
yet we are informed by the Vice
President that it will be accepted
and the work will be turned over to
the officers of the Government. A
contingent appropriation was secur-
ed by Mr.. Sawyer of some $40 900
for temporary expenses of surveys
and management. The transfer will
soon be made, and the work placed
in charge of the Engineer Depart
ment of the Government, which will
regulate and collect all tolIs,a and keep
the works in repair.

A TYPE SETTING MAOHI NE.

The New York correspondent of

Each Of these processes is performed

Of the invention is its utility and
economy--the estimated cost not
more than four hundred dollars-a
sum that will enable well-to-do com.

Another Lola Montez.

A sharp young American woman,
Mrs. Fanny Jordan, whose maiden
name was Chumley has been playing
a pretty and profitable game with
the King of Bavaria. His Majesty
rarely appears in the capital, but
leads an insolent life at his villa of
Hohenschwangan, where his chief
enjoyment is that of music. The
lively adventures went to the place
with the sweet and pretty name,and
took lodgings at the Golden Bear
Hotel, determined upon the conquest
of the King. Walking out with her
femme de chamber, when she saw His
Majesty approaching she fell to draw
ing beautiful landscape with all
her might. The King, who is proud
of the scenery, approached the fair
artist and opened in affable conver-
ton. Then be invited the engaging
Fanny to visit his country-seat, and
gave her white mare, diamond
bracelet, his portrait frame in solid
gold set with emeralds, and other
gifts of great value. Then lent her
money in quite large sums; and then
his uncle Leopold, hearing of the
matter, employed two Munich de-
tectives to hunt up the antecedents
of the enchantress. Learning his de-
termination, she fed. leaving behind
trunk containing 100 letters from
different lovers.
For the last three years the lady
has been seeking, and occasionally
finding, her fortune in different Eu>
ropean capitals. Her last affair, be-
foro the Bsvarian speculation, was in
Berlin, where she did SO bedevil an
unfortunate Colonel that he resorted
to forgery to crafty her incessant
demand for money, and so ignomini-
ously cashiered. The Bavarian de-
tectives having found her in q retir
ed village, allowed her TO make choice
in leaving the country or going to
prison. So she continued her flight
into Switzerland, with $4,000 in
money and valuables, the net pro-
ceeds of her Hohenschwangan spec
ulation.
