LATEST FROM WASHINGTON.
Especial telegram to the Dispatch.]
WASHINGTON, May %, 1873.

Affairs on the Mexican Frontier
are the absorbing topic to-day to the exclu.
sion of the Modoc and the Louisiana wars.
The main question seems Ia be. what will
I've done about the dash oil Colonel Macken-
zie into Mexico, and the general verdict in
ofticil rs well as all other quarters is that he
will be fully sustained by the Government.
Although there are no official reports that
Mexican soil has been cncroached upon, 10
one doubts that such is the fact.
II is understood that in Cabinet to-day
earnest attention was given to the subject OF
Int,ian affairs generally. aud with particular
reference to the condition OF affairs on the
Rio Grande. 1t is the opinion Of distin-
guishcd officials that the time has arrived
when il is inpcratively necessary TO take
very prompt action to prevent any further
deprcdations along the border, and that il
will be time to deal with Mexico when that
country brings the subject of an invasion OF
her territory TO the attention of our State
Department.
The Mission to RuSsia-Agnin.
II is asserted that the mission TO Russia is
still going a-begging. Report now is that
Governor Jewell will decline, and that Mr.
Henry :. Sanford. of Connecticut. formerly
Minister tn Brussels. will be rendered the
of;rc TlMoN.

1000 Bushels Of Corn Wanting . puY.
chaser.

A gentleman arrived in this city. from
Leroy, Kansas, and visited the +. W. 3
w. Railway Office, to obtain rates for tho
shipment here OF 1900 bushels Of corn.
He was referred for rates to the H. Il st.
j. Railroad, rs the other road gives no
rates from Leroy. In subsequent con-
versation with him, we ascertained that
ho had offered the whole crop in his ma
tive village at 6ve cents per pushel, bus
could not 1nd a purchaser. he next
went to Kansas City, but found the mar
ket glu,tcd Then he inqulred the rates
to St. Louis, and ascertained that no
would lose just ten cents ON the bushei
by shipping there. Now he is trying to
get rates to this point which will enable
him to sell bis crop at ten cents per
bushel. We asked him why he did not
raise hogs and feed the corn 10 them,
but he assured us In order to do that hs
must keep his hogs up, as there is . state
law there that they shall not run at large.
The poor fellow is in q sad dilemma %
to what course to pursue now, and talks
of making fuel Of his corn. At present
prices no cannot expect sufficient re-
muncration from the sale OF his crop 70

Some years ago \ famous professor
came to town where we were Io,idlhg
and announced that he could cure int
wsrst cases Of suffering in ten minutes
without surgical operation. A friend
of ours was AN invcterate ease. and we
advised him to call on the wonderful ma
giciau He called. was convinced by the
testimonials exhibited, struck up a bar
gain, paid the fifty dollars, and soen call
ed at our eilice talking as strait as rail
road track.
We were greatly astonished. and ask.
our friend by what miracle he had been
so strangely and suddenly relieved OF
bis life long trouble He most provok'
ingly informed US that he had made
solemn pledge MT to reveal the process
Of cure.
We we're soon made acquainted with
several other cures quite as remarka'ie.
and resolved to put on cur sharpest wits
and wait upon the magician ourselves.
He seemed An honest man. and IN TWO
davs We had msde up our mind 10 pay
him a large feo and learn the strange art,
with the privilege OF using it to cure
whomsoever we would
Those who had been cured by the pr
fcssor were solemnly bound not to reveal
the secret 10 any one, but our contract
gave US the privilege Of using the knowl-
edge as We pleased.
And now ws propose to give the read
srs Of this journal n simple art which has
enabled us to make very happy many un-
happy stammerers In our own han Ia
it has often failed to affect the desired re-
suit, but in three fourths Of tho cases
which VIC have treated the cure has been
complete.

sufferer would read an hour or tive every

saw the sun withdraw his light,
While shining down the beauteous west
The shadows of the coming night
On msuntain, dale and valley rest
But when the sun had sunk away.
And darkness told that night was near,
There passed a star. with trembling ray,
Far, far beyond this shrouded sphere
And as the deepening shades of night
Around their able mantle flung;
And lesser grew dsv's roteste light,
And darker gloom the sky o'erhung;
Still loveliness appeared to view,
From this benQhtcd orb afar;
And with milder. brighter hue,
Shone forth that pilgrim guiding star.
Thus whom the glow joy departs,
And pleasures golden sun hath set
And sorrow broods o or saddened hearts,
And naught is there but deep regret;
With magic ray star appears,
Bright glancing through the darksome shaue
The star of Hope-to quell their fears,
Pointing to joys that never fade
And when by darker clouds o'ercast.
Our little sky is hung in black
And SORROWS crowd aud thicken fast.
Along life's lone. un beaten track;
Immortal Hone still brighter beams,
And with un1immed, un fading ray,
Points far beyond this land OF dreams
To an unclouded. endless day.
