The REPORTED Discovery or PRIAM's
PALAcE.-It has been briefly announced
that Mr.. Schliemann, who has been ex-
cavating in search of the site Of apcient
Troy for several years, has succeeded in
the object of his labors, and has further
more actually discovered the Palace of
Priam. In confirmation of this statement
the New York Journal Of Commerce pub.
fishes the following private letter from
Mrs Francis, the wife Of the American
Minister to Greece
"ATuENs, Greece, June 25, 1873.
Mr.. Schliomann returned from Troy
yesterday. He has completed his exca-
vations, after three years Of labor, by
grand master.stroke. He has discovered
the Palace of Priam and large treasure
in gold and silver. He has carried away
forty large cases containing various arti-
ces, also fifteen baskets of real treasures.
We called upon him to-day at his resi-
dence for the purpose of examining his

ing and the forenoon of Thursday were
spent in visiting and making prepare
tons.
The following from the report of the
Herald will give good idea of the gen.
eral features Of the review:
With gratifying promptness the brig.
AIDE aud battalion commanders had their
men 10 line 10 the enclos space inside
the track shortly after , o'clock, and the
three days soldiery showed their sense of
discipline by sitting and reclining upon
the turf in emulation of a rest upon
march as We used TO see it. The space to
the north Of the track was deeply laden
with the iaiter sex aud the grand stand
was well filed with attentive listeners and
spectators.
Considerable comment was excited by
the fact that the Second Brigade (Gen.
Thomas) did not appear in its place in
the line, aud it appeared, upon inquiry,
that so few of its members were present
as to endanger its existence, wherefore it
was made to suffer consolidation with the
Fourth Brigade. Only about fifty men
were added to the latter by the operation.
After little waiting the reviewing par
ty emerged from the cover of the buildings
at the northwestern side of the grounds,
and in moment the line was at "atten.
tiou," os the Governor and his staff rode
to the right and returning toward the
left, received the sautes Of the men, and
the blare and drum taps Of the bands.
Governor Converse, though hardly young
enough to be called "boy," bestrode his
horse with much ease and grace, and re.
ceived more than one encomium for his
bearing, fairly competing in that respect
with the younger men present After the
reviewing party had passed. the order was
given to break into company front Or "By

A COLONY PROM HoLLASD.-A large colony
from Holland is expected in Monroe county,
n. Y, next winter. The Rochester DemOcra,
says that while the exact number coming is not
known, il must he large, since Col. j. G.. klinck
has made purchase of more than 400 acres OF
land in anticipation of their arrival. The lard
is situated near the town of Brighton, and en-
braces the farms of Austin Crittenden, Samuel
Pike, Philip Myers, T. A. Crittenden, Warren
White and others. The Colonel represents that
he has paid about sl00 200 for these farms. All
the contracts for them are in his name. When
the colonisrs arrive the lands will be sold to the
highest bidder among them. This is probably
the largest purchase of real estate ever made in

AN UNFORTUNATE But HONEST PosTMAsT-
ER.-The case of James L. Dunning postmastaI
at Atlanta, is hard one. Mr.. Dunning has
held the Office for two years, and is a tried and
honest public servant. Some years ago his
money clerk, Mclaughlin. absconded with
large amount of funds, and the postmaster ha
since been stinting himself of luxuries and com
forts to make up the theft. He had almost
squared bis accounts when his son, James Dun
ming, McLaughln's successor at the money or
der desk, ran away, leaving deficit of 5000
and Dunning, the aged postmaster, declares
that ne Will pay every cent If il takes him unit
the end of his days. If Mr. Dunning were a.
vigilant as he appears to be honest, his troubles
might not be so successive and overwhelming.
and he might enjoy comforts and luxuries in
stead OF others enjoying them at his expense.

SAD EFFECTS OF THE PANIc ON THg PRos-
PECIs OF WoRKISGMEN.-A dispatch from
New York SAYS that the effects of the late panic
are very apparent at present in the dullness of
several ornamental trades; some OF the manu-
fscturers employing their men but eight hours
day, and paving them only a percentage Of
heir wages. Employers are, however, daily
expecting an improved state of affairs. and will
not discharge their men unless their business
becomes really Improbable. IL seems TO be the
general opinion among mechanics thatowing 20
the low price of gold, and the threatened stag
nation OF business, employers OF all classes viii
unite this winter and largely reduce the scale
OF wages. In anticipation of this event a mass
meeting of engineers, blacksmiths, carpenters,
and members of other trades, was held last
week. The sentiment expressed favored the
settlement of all question of wages by arbitra-
ton rather than by strikes and kindred agita-
tons. The employing masons have announced
the intention TO reduce the wages OF masons,
bricklayeTs and labOrers fifty cents per day after
the LIST of November.
