The New York Herald estimateA that
the amount Of actual cash brought into

SlO0 to every immigrant, and values
every immigrant as laborer at $1,000.
Consequently it estimates the increase
OF material wealth from the immigration

600, 900. The Herald,s estimate is en-
tirely within the limits of reason. The
muscle, brain and treasure brought to
our shores from Europe are prize of
| inestimable value.

0. 3. Dickinson, for eight years Minis.
ter Resident Of the United States to the
republic CT Nicaragua, died in the city Of
Leon. in that State. on the 2Oth CT April.
Mr. Dickinson for many years occupied
prominent position in New Yo.k poli-
tics, and represented his constituency in
both houses Of the Legislature. In 1861,
MIR. Lincoln appointed him to the Mica
raguan mission, which post he filled also
during the administration Of President
johnson. Since 1860, he has continued
to reside n the city of Leon, where he
died in the seventy-fourth year of his

the carriage containing the badly fright

was.

FOLLOWING A BLOODY TRAIL The &c i.
tails Of the terrible Bender murders, in
Kansas, come to us with fearful onpha-
sig, in view of our discovery OF tho fact
that the inhuman murders were probably
TOR some time in the neighbc: OF
this city, aud that circumstances in con.
nection with the recent developments in
Kansas strongly point them out as the
authors OF mysterious double murder
which happened in our midst come year
and half ago.
Our readers will remember the cir
cumstances attending the murder Of q
German and his wife. by the name Of
Bandle, and the burning of the house
over their bodies. The mystery has
never been removed from that terrible
tragedy, aud MP to this time no person
has ever been accused or even suspected
OF the commission of that crime. we
believe that the bloody trail leads us to
the Kansas tiends. At the time of the
Bandle tragedy, there was resident noar
this city family by the name of Bender.
The family consisted CT two men and two
women. Tho Iaen were employed on
the McCulloch farm, on Silver Greek, at
the time Of the Bandle murder, and it
will be remembered that this identical
farm was the scene Of that homicide.
Soon after the occurrence of the shook
ing affair, the Benders left and went to
Kansas. 1t seems that, on reaching
Aansas, they entered on career Of crime
which is without parallel in the history
of our times.

Pulling HippopOtamus' Tooth.

Not long ago, the old male hippopotamus
at the Gardens suffered much from de
cayed tooth In former times he would
have been shot, as was poor "Chunee,"
the elephant at Exeter Change. Mr.. Bart
lett, Superintendent of the Geological
Gardens, with his ever-ready talent in
meeting all emergencies, determined to
pull out the tooth He ordered the black
smith to make pair of tooth -forceps,"
and tremendous pair they were. The
bite" of the forceps just fitted the tooth
of the hippo. By skillful management
Bartlett managed to seize Master Hippo's
tooth as he put his head through the bars.
The hippo, roaring frightully, pulled one
way, Bartlett and the keepers pulled the
other, and at last out came the TOOTH and
hippo soon got we'll again.-PopuJar Sea
