GOLD IN ILLINOIS.

The Auriferous Metal Found in Clutches
Quantities.
A telegram from Decatur, ILL.,, to the
Chicago Journal says: A party of old
miners yesterday visited the recently
discovered gold fields near this city, and
after prospecting in different places
flong the stream, pan of dirt was taken
out of Dutch gulch, washed, and found
to contain from twenty to thirty cents
worth of shining yellow metal. Some of
the party not feeling satisfied, and fear
ing that trick of some sort had been
perpetrated, procured another pan
of dirt, this time taking it off the
top, which was washed and found to cou-
tain from three to four cents worth.
. This last pan was pronounced by Captain
Mason and Mr.. Grow, who have followed
mining in California, as being rich
enough in gold to pay well for mining,
either on large or small scale.
The latest report to-day is that gold
has been found on the land belonging tC
Or. L. N. Bills, adjoining that of Mr..
Kepler. A specimen found here was
brought to the city to-day, and we learn
that it stood the test applied to it. Fur
ther Developments will be awaited with
great interest. Mr.. Kepler has refused
$4,000 per acre for his eighty acres o.
land,

An Internal Town,

Theodore Hale has named his brim-
stone mine situated in Humboldt county
"Inferno," and has located and laid out
town around it bearing the same clas-
sic appellation. The new town is sup
piled with numerous avenues, alleys, ETC.,
with names corresponding with that of
the town. For instance the stream near
it is called "River Styx," the pass in
the canyon is denominated "Hellgate;"
the streets are known as Devils avenue,
Birthstone lane, Whisky alley, Imps'
promenade, etc. The prominent places
of resort are the "Robbers' Roost, :"
"Murderers' Retreat" "Palace Infer
no." and "Devils' Delight" There be-
ing no wood or coal to be had in the
town, the fires are made entirely from
birthstone or sulphur produced from the
mines. The stream near the town, called
Styx, is not a stream of water, as one
might suppose, but of melted sulphur
and liquid potash. Their bibulants are
sulphur cocktails, birthstone punches,
aud potassium lemonades. We regret to
state that the entire town of Inferno, at
the sulphur mines, was destroyed by fire
last Tuesday. The fire originated in
Palace Inferno, which was built entirely
of birthstone, like all the other buildings
in the place. There being no water OF
Babcock fire-extinguishers in town, the
burning element melted, and running
along Devils avenue and Imps' prom
enade, set fire to Murderers' Retreat, ani
from thence all over town, which wa.
soon reduced to q veritable lake of fire
and birthstone. ."-HuneboLdt (NeU.

MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.
A Man Topples Over the River 3ank at
Niagara Falls-Being Drunk, he Escapes
with a Few Bruises,

A Man Topples Over the River 3ank at
Niagara Falls-Being Drunk, he Escapes
with a Few Bruises.
The Buffalo Express says: "Wed-
nesday evening Frenchman named Al
bert Abattoy fell over the bank of the
river at Niagara Falls, a distance of 140
feet, and, strange to say, escaped with
but few slight bruises. The acci-
dent occurred on the Canada side of the
river, about 200 feet north of the new
bridge. Abattoy, who halls from Kings
ton, Canada, was intoxicated at the time.
He staggered over the bank, falling a
clear distance of 80 feet, on to the rock
below, and then rolling down 60 feet
more toward the edge of the water.
Thomas Conroy, the noted guide, &C
companied by three or four others, as
soon as they learned of the accident,
rowed over from Prospect Park, expect
ing to find the unfortunate man a
mangled mass of flesh and bones. Judge
of their astonishment when, after ashort
search, they discovered him wedged in
between some rocks, swearing as lively
as any man in his position could,
and suffering no perceptble iniu-
ries excepting few slight bruises.
Abattoy was placed in the boat
and rowed over to the landing, where
every preparation had been made for the
appropriate reception of a corpse. The
Frenchman, however. was not at all de-
sirous of availing himself of the priv
ileges, and on reaching the shore coolly
informed the crowd that there "wasn't
id bone broken" Neither was the
empty whisky bottle which he had in his
pocket. The fall was terrible one, and
it is Lothing short of miraculous that the
man was not killed instantly. At the
same point where he fell over, German
musician met with similar accident,
two years ago, and was instantly killed.
1t was no doubt the quantity of whisky
he had imbi6ed saved him. Had he
been sober, there is scarcely a pr,ba-
bility but that every spark of his life
would have been crushed out of him by
the terrible shock his system received.
Abattoy was staggering round on the
Canada side of the Falls yesterday, as
unconcerned as though nothing had
happened. Persons intending to visit
the Falls should make note of his case
and get dead drunk, SO as to be fully
provided for in case they should fal

The Coming Harvest.

The Cincinnati Price Current, which
is usually well informed on such matters,
saws: (: "Taking the country at large, we
may say that there never was a more
favorable season for almost everything
which the land produces. The wool clip
is doubtless the largest ever sheared III
the country. The winter wheat was IN
iured somewhat in the West, but the
deficiency, if there is any, will be neu-
tralized by the largely increased amount
of breadstuffs produced in the Southern
States, which will reduce the demand
from that section upon the West, and all
other grain promises exceedingly well.
The cotton crop at the South holds out
an equally cheering prospect, and the
probabilities in regard to the root
crops are also encouraging. IN
Europe, too, the crops are uniformly
good, SO that we may expect only mod
crate export demand for breadstuffs.
With such prospects there is reason to
expect continued low prices for the STAN
off life. and other articles must come
down to their nominal level. A year IN
which the crops are good cannot be al,
together a bad one for business, and
Though the long -looked-for revival OF
trade may not be realized this year,
solid foundation will be laid whereupon
to rear a new commercial superstructure
that shall be enduring. If the crops
throughout the world turn out according
to their present promises it will be I'M
possible for the present depressed state
of the trade to continue beyond the close
of the present year. With good crops
we may defy commercial panics, ana
look forward with hope to prosperous
era for business all over the world.

"First set apart sufficient sum of
money to pay any and all claims against

the coffin with plank laid crosswise the
grave. Let no undertaken have any lot
or part in my burial. I wish, if posi-

kindred change their apparel in conse-
quence of my death. l protest against
this relic of barbarism, of having my
remains conveyed to the church and

gious services consist simply in reading
from the scriptures and prayer; no ser.

A young lady residing at Iuka, Miss,
was brutally outraged and beaten at the

early hour by a negro hack-driver named

she bit him ON the check which led to
his capture last Monday. He was az
raigned for trial, and yesterday senten-

greatest excitement ensued upon the an

was poor and unprotected, but highly es-

disguised men going to the jail and tax,

THE LIGHTNING TRIM.

With lungs of iron and wings of fame,
With nerves and sinews OF quiyering ttse',
With ribs of brass and giants frame,
He spurns the earth with an angry heol.
Through the midnight black
His eyeballs glare
With ghastly stare
On the startled track,
And he rends tine sky with 4 scream Of pain
Oh, a monster grim is the lightning train!
The legend tells of a miIk-wlite steed
That carried Mohammed from earth TO heaven;
As swift as fash of light her speed,
And jcweled feet to her feet were given:
Each leap WIS as far
As the eye has sight,
And each hoof as bright
As a blazing star,
And gleam like the stream that the comet yields
Al Borak left in the rosy fields.
A wonderful arrow was that of old
That bore Saint Abaris through the land;
It was feathered with light and barbed with gold,
And sped by the touch of Apollos hand.
With sibilant song
1t cleft the cloud
That shouted aloud
As 1t flashed along,
And the sea never saw from its throbbing tlde
vision 80 rare as the prophets ride.
The Sultan's cap and magical wand
Bore Fortunatus to isles remote,
The talis1nan took him to every land
And to every sky in its airy boat
But the cleaning shaft
From the archers arm,
Aladdns charm,
And the phantom craft,
And the steed that skinned the azure plane
Are all combined in the flying train.
1t deyours the forest and drinks the lake,
Then plunges down the wild ravines
With the wealth of the world on its burdened back
sooty man from the saddle leans,
And murky wreath
Its jaws emit
As he tightens the bit
In the dragons teeth,
And his cheek is swept by the fiery name
oh, q monster grim is the lightning train!
