The Exposition Regatta.

CINCINNATI, Sept. 24.-The most eXcit-
ing regatta ever rOwed on the Ohio river
took place this afternoon between this city
and Newport and Covington, under the
auspices of the Exposition Commission.
Cincinnati and Pittsburgh clubs, and the
Naiad club, of Toledo, took part. There
were four races, all down the river, without
return. The first race was three-quarters
Of mile, single shell, by three boys nine

A Postal lunch.
Ex-Postmaster General King to-day gave
a lunch in honor Of Postmaster General

The Black Hills Mirage.
Fuller and later reports received here in
dicate that the recent glowing accounts
from the black hillc country are entirely
unreliable and confirm the opinion of Prof.
Winchel that there are no valuable mines
in the country.
Col. Fred Grant, who accompanied the
expedition under special instructions TO re-
port upon its geological character, says
tfat the rock on which it is
claimed gold was discovered is of a meta
morphic character, i'm which no precious
minerals have ever been found Not over
three dollars worth was brought under his
observation during the entire expedition,
and it is a question whether this was not
imported into that section. The timber is
spruce and yellow pine, and valueless for
lumber. The area of tillable lands is very
small, there not being enough for dozen
good sized farms.
The Sioux Commission to-day sent TO ne
gotiate with Red Clouds and Spotted Tails
bands, went into their explorations to the
base of the Black Hills on the south side
and gave substantially the views of Grant
regarding the character of the country and
the absence of minerals. The President is
emphatic in his determination to carry out
the orders of Gen. Sheridan to prevent all
invasion of this country by intruders, so
long as by law and treaty it is secured to
the Indians.

ant Barbour and A. D. HaZen, chief Of the
Stamp division, that newspaper postage,
under the new law going into effect Jan. l,
be paid by stamps affixed to the memoran-
dunn of the mailing stamps, to be of denom-

OWES CHAYCES OF LIVING.

A medical writer Of eminence has been
collecting evidence as TO the chances OF life
which children have, upon being born, in
different countries. Out of 10000 children
born it IS found from official statistics that
in NORWAY as many as 7,4lj, or roughly
speaking, three ont of every four, live to
be twenty years of age. In England only
6.G27 so live, or 7SS fewer than in Norway.
In the United States boys have nearly as
good chance of life as in England, while
Girls have not. But in France only 5,O22,
or scarcely more than one out of two, reach
twenty. While in Ireland no more than
1855, or actually less than one out
of two, attain that age. More surprising
still are the statistics regarding old age.
Out of the 10000, for example, we learn
that in Norway 3,4S7, more than one out Of
three, reach seventy. in England almost
one out Of four; in the United States, still
men only, one out Of fOur-a trife higher
than England; in France, 1,776, or about
one of 81, and in Ireland only S6l, or one
out of III. If this table is to be depended
upon, we thus learn that Of all countries II
the world Norway offers the newborn
child the best chance of long life, while
Ireland offers the worst. And France, uni
versallt admitted to be so far as soil anC
climate are concerned one Of the most IA
yored regions Of the earth, offers but lttl'
better chance than ireland.

tablishment of the Order in Austria as shall
seem to him most judiciOus for obtaining
psTmisSion of the Austrian Government To

Grand Lodge at the lasz3sesSion on The
same subject was so eLephatic against ne
peal of said resolution, that We need onll
refer TO it as full answer 10 the resolution
