Boss Tweed RepOrSed to Have
Escaped.
How the RunOr Originated.

How the RunOr Originated.
NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-Tweed's habeas
copus case came before Judge Barrett to-
day. The prisoner was not in court, be-
cause of illness, though it is stated he was
brought over from the penitentiary last
evening. After argument the writ was dis
missed, the prisoner remanded and left to
his remedy on a writ of error.
LATER.-Wm. Tweed escaped from Gus
body to-day when returning to BlackweIl's
Island.
STILL LATER.-Inquiries have been
made in the proper quarters, and Il is ascer-
tanned that there is no truth in the rumOr
IN the evening papers that Tweed had es-
capped.
How the Report Got Out.
NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-Tweed was
brought TO town to-day 60 appear i'm court,
where his presence was required. By ar
rangement with District Attorney Phelps,
he was permitted to remain in his private
office, under charge of Warden Liscomb
and a keeper while the habeas corpus
case was being argued. When an
adverse decision was rendered, the
prisoner was taken back to BlackwelPs
Island. His non-appearance in the court
room probably gave rise to the false rumor
Of his escape, which appeared in the last
ecAtioD Of the evening papers.

Skilled longshoIemen are being attracted
from abroad, and large numbers OF men
from the coal mining regions are also apply

would pay them the old rates.
Stolen Bonds.
The altered United States registered
bonds recovered by the police at 4S New
street in the Office of the mythical firm of
j. & A. Batchelda & Co. have been identi-
fed as part of the securities stolen from the
Glenn's Falls National Bank four years
ago. The bonds were concealed under a
carpet on the floor of the New street Office.
They included two 5000 bonds and one
for $4,000, from which the original num-
bers and names of the holders were erased
with chemicals and others inserted. The
recovered bonds are to be introduced as ev-
Idence to-day in the case of Gag Holt, the

say, is Balenda & Co.

November Report of the Cotton
Exchange.
Present Condition Of tho Crop


MEMPHIS, Dec. 1.-The Cotton Ex-
change crop report for November, issued
this morning, gives the following summary
derived from 107 responses from West Ten
neSsee, North Mississippi, and Arkansas,
north of Arkansas river: Ga report dam
age by frost; 43 no damage. The average
damage by frost is 81 per cent. The average
decrease in acreage is l !. Due exertions
have been and are being made to save the
crop. The average closing picking season
last year was Jan. IA. This year it will
close about Dec Z. The crop is being
marketed unprecedentedly fast.
The corn crop Of this district is about
thirty-two per cent. short of the average Of
the past two seasons. The aggregate Of
responses does not indicate any change in
the morale Of laborers. The prospect is that
the entire crop will be saved in better con-
dition than ever known. The committee
are of opinion that the decrease of the cot
ton crop in this district from last year, will
be about thirty-five per cent.

The Favorite Homo Remedy,
PAIN-KILLER.

Has been before the public over THIRTY YEARS
aud probably has a wider and better reputation
then any other proprietary medicine of the
present day. At this period there are but few
unacQuainted with the merits OF the PAIE
KILLER; but, while some extol II lin ment,
they know but little of its power in easing pain
when taken Internally; while others use 1t in
ternally with great success, but are equally ig-
n0rant of its healing virtues when applied ex-
ternally. We therefore wish to say to all, that
it is equally successful, whether used internally
or externally. 1t is sufficient evidence of its
virtues as a standard medicine to know that it
is now used in all parts of the world, and that
its sale Is constantly increasing. No curative
agent has had such a wide spread sale or given
such universal satisfaction.
DAVIS PAIN-K4LLEE is purely vegetable
compound, prepared from the best and purest
materials, and with a care that insures the
most perfect uniformity the medicine; and
while it is most effective remedy for pain,
is a perfectly safe medicine, even in the mos
unskilfui hands.
1t is eminently a FAMILY MEDICINE and by
being kept ready ior immediate resort,
save many an hour of suffering. and many
dollar in time and doctors bills.
After over thirty years trial, it is ,ti.l receiv.
.ng the most unqualified testimonials to
virtues, from persons of the highest characta
and responsibility. Eminent Physicians costa.
mend it as a most eIfectual preparation for the
extinction OF pain. II is not only the best
remedy ever known for Bruises. Cuts, Burns,
&c, Iut for Dysentery, or Cholera, or any sort
of bowel complaint, it is remedy unsurpassed
for efficiency, and rapidity of action. In the
great cities of India, and other hot climates, it
has become the standard medicine for all such
comp plants, we'll as for Dyspepsia, Liver
Complaints, and all other kindred disorders
For Coughs and Colds. Canker, Asthma and
Rheumatic difficulties, it has been proved by
the most abundant and convincing testimony to
be an invaluable medicine.
We would caution the public against all imi-
tations of our preparation, either in name or
style of putting up.

The FRIEND OF ANIMALs-A New York
correspondent says: "That Mr. Bergh keen
iy feels the ills and bad treatment that de-
fenseless children and dumb animals are
subject to is evident from the expression of
his face. l have often seen him standing on
curb-stone, along Broadway, watching
with sad eyes and melancholy countenance
the poor, jaded horses that pass up and
down, dragging heavy wagons and stages.
But it is to the street cars that he turns the
greater part of his attention. How sadly he
looks after those overloaded Third Avenue
cars. The cars On this line, although they
run every two minutes, are always crowded
out to both platforms, and every time they
stop and start again it seems as though the
poor horses would pull themselves out of
their skins. Mr.. Bergh has a great many
admirers in this city, and is the hero for a
large number of people. He is very
modest, retiring sort of man, and no
coaxing can induce him to have his pboio-
graph taken for sale. He is very well off.
and devotes all his time and the greater
part of his money to his chosen work. To
look at him you would think he was very
mild sort OF man; but if you want to
know If he is ever aroused to fury ask some
bus or car-driver whom he has caught
sick or wounded horse"
