A gentleman of our acquaintance,
aged about so, took the cars for long
ride He secured a good seat in a
not crowded car, and put therein his
bag and various other conveniences.
After some hours he left his seat for
refreshments, leaving ample evidence
therein of its occupancy. On return
ing to the train, he found highly
finished woman sitting in his place,
and in the midst of what Western peo-
pie would call his plunder. He paus-
en- at the entrance, and looked visit
fully at the woman.
DO you wish anything, sir ?"
" Yes, madam, my carpet-bag, if
you please. Thank YOU"
He still waited and looked.
" Is there anything else, sir 2"
Yes, madam, my umbrella, If you
please. All, thank YOU"
Still waiting in respectful attitude,
the lady grew restless.
Is there any thing more 2"

aud the papers which l fear you are
sitting upon" va
These arc hastily offered, and as the
gentlemen still stood respectfully at
the entrance. she turned upon him,
with some emphasis:

ing tor?'' -. l..

In removing the wooden cornice of
the United States Hotel yesterday,
the interstices were found to be filled
with honeycomb. Bees had lined the
entire cornice with honey, and over
two hundred pounds was secured by
Mr.. Hammel, the proprietor of the
hotel. Parties are now endeavoring
to hive the bees, of which there is an
enormous swarm, or several swarms.
Many houses in the city are thus stor-
ed with the product of the busy bee.
Between the ceiling and the roof of
the house in which we write, Temple
Block, there are tons of hone. Bees
have been hiving in our roof for
eight years, and frequently, when the
weather is very sultry, the pure honey
percolates through the crevices of the
ceiling. Whenever we require honey
all we have to do is to bore hole
through the ceiling with gimlet, and
then 60 to q grocery and buy some. j
hive Of bees is also located in the
Court House, but they don't seem tc
! flourish. gl3 - ~ .es.n !

When q San Francisco physician
gets out of funds he don't 60 to the
poor house or commit suicide. Not
much. He raises the required money.
A case that recently occurred in that
city illustrates the ways that are
dark of the medical fraternity. A
doctor named Richards, finding want
in his pharmacy of the root OF all
evil, started out to procure some Of it.
He lounged into the Office Of Mr..
Reid, and after q few casual remarks,
struck an attitude of horror and said,
Great Heavens defend us, Mr.. Reid,
you are ILL.," This was new thing to
Mr.. r., but the wiley pill man soon
convinced him that an attack Of brain
fever was imminent. Calling car
riage, the, patient and the doctor
drove to the " sick mans house
where ice was applied to his head and
croton oil rubbed on his breast. Then
taking ten dollar bill from Mr.. Reid,
the physician "sloped." The family
doctor was called and pronounced the
trouble to be nothing more than . bad

The New York Tribune, comment
ing on the inability Of the Democrats
of New England to see and improve
their opportunities to regain the pop
ular confidence, says: Temporary
reverses have sobered the party Of the
Administration, and taught its leaders
to correct their errors. 1t can be said
of it, indeed, that no party in the his
tory of the country was ever SO sensi-
tive to public opinion, none ever SO
readily obeyed the helm of popular
sentiment, as did the Republican party
for the first twelve years of its exis :
tence. Whether that record can be
continued is an open question. On
the. other. hand, the effect Of the most
trifing successes upon the Democratic
party, instead of steadying them with
the sense of responsibility, has been
rather to set them crazy with desire
for spoils and intoxicate them with
the plunder. There has been no ex-
ception to this rule. The unprejudic-
ed observer Of our politics capnot help
remarking that in the sense of being
discreet, prudent, clear headed, the
present dominant party has invaribly
shown itself superior to its opponents.

Mr.. Trimble has brought to New
York some of the fastest horses in the
land. He sold Judge Fullerton to
Mr.. Humphrey for $4,000 Commo.
dore Vanderbuilt paid him $40, 600 for
Mountain Boy and 5000 for Noun
tain Maid. The price paid for Mabel
is not known, but it is said to be
large, as her easy and rapid gait bids
fair to make her rival her feet sister.

COehlAe,a Rurial.

A private letter received in Boston,
from an officer at Camp Bowie, Ari-
IONA Territory, and dated June Is,
gives the following interesting partic-
ulars Of Cochise, the noted Indian
chief: "Cochise, the great war chief
of the Chiracahua Apache Indians,
died on the Sth instant from dyspep-
sia. He had been sick for about six
weeks, and was reduced to a mere
skeleton He had an idea that he
was bewitched, and in order to break
the spell the war chiefs and others,
under the direction Of his medicine
man. kept up all the noise they could
make by singing and drumming on
beef hides stretched over sticks SO as
to make something like drum, night
and day, during his whole sickness.
He said the
SPIRITS OF THE WHITE MEN
that he had killed were haunting him.
There is little doubt that his disease
originated from his drinking tizwin,
which is made from ground corn, fer
S.nted, and drank in large quantities
a an empty stomach. Indians fre-
Asentiy fast forty -eieht hours before
izdulging, that the liquor may have
the desired effect. He has been suf-
GasYer ever since he came on the reser-
vation.g Cochise's funeral was quite
an expensive affair. The morning af-
ter his death he was washed and paint
ed in war style, placed on his favorite
horse, one of his chiefs getting up be-
hind to hold him on, his four most
noted sub.chiefs preceding, his family
and the others of his tribe following
him. They marched twelve miles to
his grave, no one but those who were
of the tribes blood being allowed to
attend The grave was very large.
fSssn >the bottom were laid blankets,
then he was rolled up in pair of very
handsome blankets, which had only
arrived few days before his death,
being a present from the Indian con-
tractors, Messrs. Hooper & Co. They
weighed forty-two pounds and had his
name woven into the texture; you can
imagine they were nice to be Of that
weight The sides of the grave were
| walled up about three feet with stone.
His rifle and arms, as we'll as other
articles of value, were laid beside him.
Above his body were placed more
blankets, then mescal poles resting OH
the walls of his grave; covering these
were skins to prevent dirt from falling
through, then the grave was filed
with stones and dirt.
HIS FAvORITE HORSE
was shot within 200 yards of his grave,
another horse was killed about one
mile away, and third animal was
shot about two miles distant. This
was done with the idea that he will
! find horse when he needs it in the
spirit land. The family destroyed al
the stores they had to eat, so that they
were without food for about forty
eight hours His son, Tonza, sue
ceeds him. He is very large Indian
but quite young, and great friend O
the whites. So far, he gets alont
very we'll. but the agent says that or
the war path he would have no diff
cutly, but thinks on the reservation
he may occasionally have littl'
trouble settling points with some o
the older sub chiefs, as all chiefs los
influence on reservations.

Corn Fodder.

All dairymen everywhere, who are
conducting the dairy business on
frst-rate corn lands, where they can
grow corn and feed it to COWS for much
less than they can grow and feed grass,
are doing just what l would do under
like circumstances; and with these
dairymen 1 take no issue. however
much I may pity their cows. But
there is large class Of dairymen who
insist upon growing corn for cows on
first class grass lands, where grass can
be grown and fed at less cost than
corn. and its value as food for the
COW is much greater. Yet these men
do this year after year, even without
ever knowing the cost-of an acre of
sowed corn, the cost of feeding it, or
its value as food in comparison with
the best grasses. With this class of
dairyman I do take issue, and regret
that their cows cannot speak with
mans voice to their owners as
Balaam's ass rebuked the madness of
the blind prophet. l do not under
value sowed corn as summer or winter
food for cows. but [ know good grass
is better l have grown and fed more
sowed corn than very many who ad-
vocate it as food for the cow, and
should have been growing and feeding
it now if my cows had not known
more of it's value than l did.-Harris
Lewis, in New York Tribune.

A curious fact is related in connec-
ton with the death of Jules Janin,
the French critic and literature. He
is said to have expressed much hor-
ror at the idea Of dying like common
mortal, nightcap on his head and
cooling draught beside him, but wish
ed to die in the same way as Beranger,
the great lyric poet, who expired seat
ed in his chair. The identical chair
in which Beranger died was in possess
sion Of Janin, and the latter had his
wish grati6ed, for it was while seated
in his chair that he passed quietly
away. .t-li..l.-.- la

has accepted retainer and will sum
up the case. William M. Eyarts, 3.
F. Tracy, John K. Porter, W. 0,

man will assist Mr.. Conkling. The list
of Mr.. Tilton's counsel is said not to
be complete. Senator Carpenter, of
Wisconsin, Daniel Dougherty of Phila-
delphia, and David Dudley Field are
mentined. MIR. Moulton has secured
Judge Fullerton, although Gen. Butler
will take the lead in the case and per-
sonally appear. Mr.. Beach will most
likely appear also. A motion will be
made for change of venue. This is a
matter in the discretion of the court.
A motion will be made for a certiorari
to carry the case before the Supreme
Court. This, we believe, is a motion
OF right, and an effort will then be
made to remove the case to ALBANY or
Westchester. 1t is thought the trial
viii take place in a fortnight, and
probably last three or four weeks.
