DeCapItated.

San Francisco Chronicle letter.
Your correspondent, q short time
before the execution, DESTROYS of as
certaiuing the design of the wall
tent already alluded to, obtained a
passing glance of the interior. He
saw within long table, similar to
those used in the dissecting room of
. medical college. a black water
proof, India-rubber blanket was
spread thereon. A barrel of water
was in one corner. In another was
a case of surgical instruments, and
apparatus necessary for some an
atomicsl disintegratiou. He subse-
quently ascertained that the heads of
Captain Jack and Schonchin were re-
moved from their trunks and placed
in alcohol for transmittal to the med
ical museum in Washington. Lam
guagc cannot be found severe enough
TO denOunce this act. 1t certainly
could not have been committed on
the order of General Wheaton or any
officer at Fort klamath. 1t is said
to have emanated from the headqusr-
tiers at Washington, and could only
have been issued TO crafty the pru-
rient curiosity of the Moguls at the
nations capital.

A New York Herald reporter has
interviewed the Supreme Court
Judges of Tennessee, at Jackson, as
to their choice for Chief Justice of
the Supreme Court of the United
States, and here is the result: Judges
Nicholson, Deaderick and Mcfarland
are in favor of Hon. william NJ.
Evsrts, of New York. Judge Free
man favors Judge Curtis, of Msssa-
chusetts, and Judge Snee3! prefers
Judge Campbell, Of Louisiana,
though he would be satisfied with Ell
Their Evarts or Curtis, while Judge Pc
te Turney thinks Chief a. 0. 7. Mich
olson ought to succeed Chase, and Il
he cannot be appointed, he favors
Hon. r. J. Mckinney, of Knoxville.

Robert Toombs delivered an agri-
cultural address in Georgia recently,
in which he affirmed that the build
ing of an OK cart was among the lost
arts in Georgia, and that planters
gave as their excuse for buying
Northern hay that grass would not
grow in this country, when it is
known to be fact that during the
growing season nearly every man,
woman, and child, black and white,
able to work, are Iaboring hard to
kill grass.

PHENOMENON "A few days since some of
our town boys went up the river to hunt pleas
ants On their return they stepped at '"Touey' 5
Hole" a well known cave about mile above
town in Maryland, aud1whst examining the
surroundings, they discovered crevce which
seemed to open into vault or chamber con-
nected with the cave. After some little trouble
they enlarged the hole sufficiently to enable
them to see something Of the interior, and to
be able to make out the form of skeleton ex-
tended ou the floor of the chamber, which it is
supposed is that Of an Indian. One of the
party, whilst looking into the hole, called out,
'sHeilo old fellow what are you doing down
there ?" and his amazement and that of the
whole party may be better imagined than de-
scribed when, in response to the inquiry, the
answer was ':No-thing!" They do say that
the way the parties made tracks tor town would
not have disgraced two-torty team on she'll
road, and we doubt if any of them will venture
again to disturb the dead Indian in Toney $
Hole. -Shepherdstoaon Register.
