The POpe's IieaIIh--Tie Re
pentant Queen OF Spain.

New York Times Rome letter.
So far as concerns the Pope's health
it is every day slightly mending. His
general strength is not sufficiently re-
cruited to enable him to take the active
exercise which he likes so much. but
he is able to take his walk. whether in
his own apartment or in the garden of
the Vatican To favor the weak legs
as much as possible he uses his crutch,
which he prefers to depend upon rather
than to lean upon the arm of au at
teudaut. In his visage or person there
is hardly any sign that Pho Nino has
suffered from illness. He preserves
his goodly bulk and at the age Of 81
his face l. without a wrinkle Plus
TX, is one Of the cleauest men in Rome,
aud gives a good example of that kind
OF cfvffTz1-fou 70 t're rese-tf-frfe.~F F,,,r,rs-
lStion. The ex Queen of Spain left
Rome, few days ago, and is now 10
Milan. Her ten days here were passed
in visits to the Vatican, to churches,
and sanctuaries, kissing sacred images,
aud shedding tears of repentance for
past sins, with promises to the saints
and the Pope of amendment. She has
gone about dressed In mourning gar
ments, and no outward act Of piety has
been neglected. But she has smiled
through her tears at the sweet words Of
encouragement received from the Holy
Father. The suffrages of the Vatican
are divided between the Carlists and
the Alfousists, but the party of the
latter is gaining, both with the prelates
and the Pope. The hopes of the hier.
archy are founded in the dubious po-
lilical condition of Spain and resto-
ration of the Bourbons.

strike Against a Hoa-GarrIeE,
New York Times, July I9.l

A patent hod carrier which has been
used several months by the contractors
for the brick work for the Music Hall
in Troy, has been made the occasion OF
strike by the workmen, the par;icu-
lars being given by the Troy Times of
last evening as follows "On one or
two occasions the Masons' Laborers
Union have both officially and un-
officially notified the contractors that
the use OF the apparatus was distate
ful to them. The contractors express
ed a willingness to discontinue it's use
if the laborers would carry the bricks
and mortar TO the top of the walls.
This it seems they were not willing to
do, and the controversy died out. Last
evening it was renewed, aud the union
passed resolution ordering the labor
ers employed upon the building to
cease work until the machine was re
moved, and Messrs Button and Buck
ley were notified to that effect this
morning by their employees. The
order was carried into effect, and to day
work on the building is almost entire.
ly suspended There does not seem
20 be any serious objection on the part
of The laborers to the use of the ma
chine on this building, because few are
willing to carry a hod up eighty feet
above ground, but the fear is that its
introduction will serve as precedent
for its general use hereafter.

At the last session of the New
Hampshire Legislature a bill for regu-
lating elections in Portsmouth was in.
troduced in the House of Represents
tives. The bill provided that in flu
ture noue but white ballots should be
used. very simple provision, and one
il would seem which nobody could OBJ
ject to. But, strange as il may appear,
this harmless proposal drew out the
most determined opposition, the Speak
er Of the House takiug the floor to
aud earnesiness at his command, and
il was voted down.
The reader may wonder what special
objection the representatives, of the
Credit Mobilier party in the New
Hampshire Legislature could have to
the use of white ballots IN au election;
but their wonder will cease when they
learn how elections are managed in
Portsmouth In TINT city is a navy
yard. When important elections are
to occur there is always a great de
maDd for wQzhSpen in that yard, and
the worknfor all expected to vote
for the 4 .nistration candidates
There is a possibility, however, that
some of these workmen may have con
scieutious scruples against voting for
these candidates, and the device has
been adopted of supplying them with
b4llots having highly colored backs,
so that the Federal officers can detect
them if they attempt to vote otherwise
than as they are told When they are
caught in such rcbelliOus conduct they
are promptly dealt with.

The rout Of the projected road extends
from ST. Louis to Hickman aud Bel

The report of the engineer shows
3 very direct and comparatively level

OF substantial aid have been received
from individuals of wealth. aloug the
line of road, as well as from counties,
towns and mnuicipal corporations.
The executive committee proposes to

Il. will be seen from the above that
the point is settled in favor Of Hiek

couragipg, aud is regarded by Sany as
a fixed fact. We understand The per

will be made during the month of
August Iu the meantime the canvass

the road will be completed BY The fall

snow from the rails with broom as
the train slowly crawled along. Each

In the early days of the road the stage

Captain Jack as a prisoner.

New York Times Letter
Confinement goes very hard with an
Indian, aud Capt. Jack has suffered
much since his imprisonment He is
thin in flesh and haggard in appear
ance. No doubt he was especially dis.
comfted at the result of his interview
with the chiefs, old Seouches and AL
len David, few days before. He had
been proven liar there under very
noriifying circumstances, and may
have felt that his case was weakened
thereby. When he came into this last
Modoc stronghold, when the Modoc
nation were penned like sheep, and
kept under vigilant guard, it is not un
likely that the situation was presented
TO his mind in very vivid light. He
had been chief; had magnifed his
office, and had filed it with all possi-
Bile dignity. He had dictated terms to
the whites as long as they chose to
parley with him, and, when they came
in force, he had waged war with such
success as the world had never before
known.

his mind. He remembered that the
treachery of part of his people had
betrayed ain- death, ,-.,.s tI.-sal.i.
cherished dream of retaining his birth
place and the home of his fathers on
Lost river was ended forever. Here
were his people captive, and he in
chains, and they were objects of sym
patby for the hated white man. No
doubt, too, the kind words, and sympa-
thetic looks, and tones of the Boston
women were something beyond his
ideas and he sat for while following
the movements of General Davis with
an eager, pleading look that had in it
something that was untranslatable +;
that may have been half wouderment,
that they who were to judge aud con
denim him should show such sympathy y
aud Kindness, and there must have
been questioning Of the justice oil

him an Iudian, wild aud untutored.
aud gave such gifts, such wealth and
such wonderful power to the white man.
The fountains OF his soul opened at
these impressions aud remembrauccs,
and tears coursed down the cheek of
the Modoc chief who will live in his
tory as the General OF the lava beds.
His two wives wept bitterly old men,
women. aud children joined iu the wall
Jacks sister, Mary, sobbed and uried
with loud voiced grief, and the lady
visitors leut their tears at the eorrows

The Farmers Nominee.

In this issue, we by authority, an
uouuce Taylor Bard, Esq as the farm
er's candidate, to represent Hickman
aad Fulton counties in the next State
Legislature.
We are not fully posted as to the
CIRCUMSTANCES attending the candidacy
of Mr. Bard except the understanding
that he is the nominee of certain Farm
cr's Clubs or Associations, which, deem
i; to their interest to put forth can
didute to especially represent certain
principles aud pOlicies-the aims aud
objects Of said associations. What
those principles aud policies are as
represented by Mr.. Bard, we are not
authorized or prepared to define and
still lees are We prepared to define the
cause of objection to Messrs. Walker
and Hess on the part of said clubs
The two last named gentlemen are
pemocTais-running however inde
neutrality-suspicious. the sapction Of
party nomination. If eithef'of these
was the nominee of the Democratic
party the duty and course Of Demo
crats would be plain but they re not.
AIr. Bard is also a Democrat-and we
presume will claim that he does not
forfeit TO any degree his party fealty
in accepting the farmers nomination,
which. If we understand the principles
represented by these clubs, tends more
to confirm than to impugu his Denoc-
racy.
What effect the new candidate will
have upon the pending race we can
not tell, because we are totally igno-
rant of the strength represented by
the Farmers clubs, or the feeling
which govern them towards the nomi
nation. Their action in postponine
nomination to within two weeks OF
the election day, was certainly, griev
Gus blunder, because their real strength
can not now be realized.
We apprehepd the field as now made
up. will give the Republican party the
balance Of power in the election, ihai
il while they may no. elect one Of their
own party. they eau elect either of the
three Democrats now in the field
That party has 90 power to lose in
these couoties and everything to gain,
aud therefore can afford to place their
vote "solid" where il will do them the
most good. Human nature is very
cranky. and we should not sse sur
prised il the uext Democratic rcprt- :
sentative Of Fulton aud Hickman does
not owe his majority to The Republican
vote.
We wish it was oiherwise. We wish
the Democracy bad made a regular
nomination. La this view the Corr
rsR early 10 the campaign suggested a
nominating convention; but it was
suffered to 90 by, aud hence the ruce
asiiis.
The candidates, Mes-rs. Walker.
Hess, aud Bard. are Democrats and
80 far we should be content OF the
I've first we have previously spoken.
Mr Bard is 70 upright, honest, inicIi

think will make a safe and prudeo,
