-Oue of the coolest things on
ice is Isenberg's proposition to ship
ice at two and half cents a pound.
This is putting down ice as cheap
- it il shipped from vicksburg,
and then there is another conside-
ration. my rural and riparian breth-
rem. that is, that Ice which has
been housed In Greenville partakes
Of the salubrity Of our atmosphere,
and you can eat it all day. and it
will not intoxicate. Therefore we
have NO hesitation in recommend
ing Greenville ice as containing
more Of the refreshing properties
Of American cold water than any
now offered to our high-toned Sou
thern people.

A Wonder IN Surgery.


I hNIi tiic phcinpAis Aplcul.
The announcement Of the fact
that the skeleton of a child had
passed through the aperture made
In a male person operated upon for
stone In the bladder by DR.. w. f.
Rogers, has caused no little com.
ment among the medical fraternity
Of this city. Quite a number Ol
physicians have visited the Office
Of DR.. Rogers to examine the bones
Of u skeleton, and 10 learn the par
tlculars attending the passage.
The facts, as we learn them, are a.
follows: On the 8th VI. June DR.. w,
+. Rogers, assisted by Drs. Sims,
Jones, Nuttall, Morgan and White
operated on Jerry Walker, aged
IL, for stone In tile bladder. The
operation was successfully perform

tracted q stone as large an u guinea
egg. Some days after the opera.
ton the nurse, while dressing It,
saw something pr0truding from the
wound, which she extracted and
gave to DR.. Rogers OH his next Wis.
II to the patient. This proved tu
be the bones OF q child. In this
formation are part of both bones 0l
the thigh, one Of the leg, one Of
each arm, and one hip bone. The
nurse stated that there were many
more bones, but not knowing the
Importance Of preserving them, she
threw them away. We learn from
the doctors that cases are reported
where bones, teeth and hair are
found In the cysts, but this is the
first case where perfectly formed
bones Of = skeleton have been
brought to light, the strongest fsa-
ture being the fact that the skele-
ton came from . boy. The patient

dantS.

A Nashville despatch to the Louisville
Courier Journal, dated the 9th, tells of a
remarkable woman: "The one hundredth
birthday of Mrs. Mary Vaughan was cele-
brated at her home in Williamson county
to-day She was born in Nottaway county,
Va, August ~, ITS. She. is the mother
of seven boys and eight girls, fourteen Of
whom are married. The family is not only
large in numbers, but giants in size, but few
men coming under six feet, even down to
the fou rth generation. Five hundred per-
sons assembled around the stand, garlanded
with flowors, to do honor to her one hund-
reth birthday. Short addresses were made
and there were songs and prayers. After
the religious services the assembly formed
a procession, in which was one hundred of
her descendants, and, headed by her,
marched to Agrove, and partook of sump-
tuous dinner. Her faculties were unim-
paired. She hears well, uses no spectacles,
and frequently walks mile. She attrib-
utes her long life to habits of uninterrupted
industry and uniform obedience to her hus-
band. She wove the cloth which uniformed
her grandsons and great grandsons, SOL
diers of the Confederacy. She has now 45O
living descendants.

Wall Streets Agitation.

NEW YORK, Aug. 31.-There was an ex-
citement again on Wall street to-day. Du-
ring the last half hour of business the stock
market was weak. Stocks declined and
money advanced, call loans saving being
run to six per cent. The decline in stocks
was lead by the Western Union Telegraph
Company and the Lake Shore. Among the
reasons assigned for the heavy decline in
the past two days in Western Union Tele-
graph are reports that negotiations with the
Atlantic and Pacific Company have been
b11.en off. and that the latter is to
unite with the California Company
and that the recovery of the direc-
cable by the Farraday will make the opposi-
tion of the Western Union powerful. The
Post says while these reports are plausible
enough, the real reason is believed to be
simply sales by recent larger holders on
speculation. The account of the Express
says of the fluctuations yesteaday and to-day
were purely speculations and had no refer.
ence to the outside situation which shows
signs of Improvement and especially among
the merchants who are doing little business
as the season advances.

of the following gentlemen: Attorney-Gen-
eral Vanatta; Secretary of State, Kelley; j..
w. Hitler, President of the Senate; Geo. O.
Vanderbilt, Secretary of the House, and A.
0. Runyon, Comptroller of State. Governor
Beadle is also present in an -ofiicio capacity
AS yet there are no new developments be-
y0nd the fact that it has been discovered that
there is $2s,oOO in Mount Holly Bank for
which Mr.. sooy has no credit on the books of
the State Treasury. Mr.. Sooy himself states
that the reason credit does not appear on
his books, is owing to the fact that the bank
officials at Mount Holly did not want the
other banks to know how much they had on
deposit. The State Treasurer is credited on
the bank books with this deposit. A num-
per Of experts are engaged in overhauling
Mr.. sooy 'abnoks. The result Of the exame'

The Telegraphic Consolidation


New YORK, Aug. 31.-A meeting of the
Directors and Trustees of the Atlantic and
Pacific Telegraph Company was held this
afternoon, to consider certain propositions
made by the Western Union Telegraph Co.,
looking to the consolidation of the two COM
panies. Among those present were Jay
Gould, Sidney Dillon, U. J. syms and others.
The session was not of long'duration. The
details of the proceedings have not been
made public; it is believed, however, that
ell negotiations for an amalgamation of the
two companies have been broken off, and the
attempt of the Western Union Company to
absorb the Atlantic and Pacific;;~ has proved
a failure. 1t is understood that two distinct
propositions were made to the Atlantic and
Pacific representatives, both of which were
rejected. One of these propositions received
but one affirmative vote, and the other was
rejected without debate, the members refu-
sing to entertain it upon any consideration
One of the propositions, it is stated, was
that the Atlantic and Pacific be consolidated
with or leased to the Western Union upon
a basis of s2,5OO,OOO capital, the Wes-
tern Union to pay eight per cent. interest
therefor. and guarantee the lines of the At
lantic and Pacific company in good working
order.

DOStOU 4 OH.
A correspondent sends the following: "In
crossing Washington street yesterday, a
lady slipped and fe:l, hurting one Of her
ankles. A youth sprang to assist her, and
seeing al express wagon coming directly
for them, called out for the expressman to
look out. The latter did not do it, but drove
right at them, when the youth seized the
bride and forced the horse back. The ex-
pressman came down from his seat on the
wagon, swearing and making illusions not
of pleasant kind to the boy. The latter
was transformed for an instant into savage,
sprang forward and struck the man full in
the face, knocking him down, and then
placing his foot on his breast, seemed pre-
pared to strike. him again. All this took
place in less than a minute, and several
gentlemen, including myself, stepped for
ward and interposed. The expressman was
taken in charge by policeman, and the
youth went of, giving no name. o, ~

RalstOn's Integrity.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 31.-The rumors
affecting Ra'ston's integrity are denied as
false in connection with recent rumors con-
cerning the affairs of the Bank of California
respecting an over issue of the stock; of the
disappearance of security and other fraudu-
lent proceedings. This much is known posi-
lively that from three to three and a-half
millions of assets of the Bank have been
very recently abstracted without the know
lodge of the Directors. How this has been
done is not known at present. The Direc-
tors are still busy examining the state Of af-
fairs, but it is not known when their report
