A certain CLAP who has recently
located in Cheyenne is playing the
confidence game upon the unsophis-
Heated people in the eastern states.
He advertises in eastern papers That
he will give certain valuable informa-
ton In relation to the Black Hills
country in return for n remittance of
two or three dollars. His victims COM
plain that the valuable considera-
ton" for their remittances is not forth
coming, hence they have written to
the authorities here to ascertain who
the fellow IS that promises. but does
not fulfill his engagements. The OIL
GERS are on the track Of the fellow and
will catch him SOON. we think. Pat
tees lottery IS about all we can stand
in this Territory swIndling carried
ON so small n scale as the above, with
out n license, is a discredit to Wyo-
ming and must be put down.

Captain James Giliiss, Quarter

has put n considerable force at work
re-haIIding the telegraph line frum

important military business.
Now that miners are leaving here
every week by hundreds f= the guild

DC necessary To- have Geographic con-
nection with that country. a line
could be put in from Fort Laramie Ia
Bear Lodge in about l3j or 40 miles
and la Custer City in about the same
distance. That II. would pay well,
there IS no doubt. By the time spring
IS we'll open there will be ten To
twenty thousand people in The mines.
Towns will be springing up, and
trade and traffic will begin with Il
rush. Cheyenne is the natural outlet
for the general business Of that re-
gion, and this way it will come and

will be urgently rcquirtd. Tie ex-
pense of putting la II telegraph line

would be small, while the profit
would be ample and immediate.

The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1875-03-20

The following telegram was sent
from St. Louis on the 18th inst: Fran
cisco Palermo, an Italian lemon ped
dler, while walking along Broadway
this morning, was fired on by two
men behind Il fence on the opposite
side of the street. He turned and
ran, when two bullets, coming from
a lumber yard on the same side of the
street, struck him, and he dropped
dead. 1t appears P;llmero came here
trom New Orleans about a year ago $:
that while in that city he lived with
an uncle, who was murdered and that
five Italian acquaintances We're sus-
pected Of the murder. But it was
newer ascertained definitely who COM
mihted the deed. About three months
ago these five acquaintances came to
st. Louis. and since threatened, it is
alleged. to kill Palermo. Three of
these men, giving their names as Jo-
seph IaMpagnia, Joseph Cambessio
and Anton Campagnia, have been ar
rested. and the other two are known
to the police. Palmero was peace
able. industrious young man, and was
to be married next month.
On the 18th this additional informa-
ton concerning the affair was tele-
graphed:
Five more Italians were arrested at
Belleyille, Illinois, to-day. They are
believed, from statements made bv
them, to be the mulderers of Fran
cisco Palermo, who was shot on Sat
urday morning last

Contrasts in Congress.

1HCit HIS UCcu dO ItiSt OHc Vel
stirring scene in the House since
wrote You last-tle scene in which
John Young Brown, of Kentucky
came haughtily down the aisle, fol
he was not brought" to receive at
tie bar of the House the Speakers
censure for the language of his at
tack upon General Butler. This John
Young Brown is thirty nine years OF
age and q rebel" of the most fire
eating sort. He is not so tall as the
average kentucllian and quite stout.
He has curling black hair and whist-
ers, dark eyes, and a forid dark face.
He was elected to the Thirty sixth
Congress, and unable to take his seat
for six months ON account of his
youth. He was again elected to Con-
gress, and refused to take his seat be-
cause he preferred to fight to destroy
the government to representing a con
stituency in it's Legislative body. He
entered the Confederate army, and
survived to be elected to the Forty
third Congress of the United States,
and to be censured by it's majority
for his prevarication, us we'll as the
language OF his attack upon General
Butler. He is Il man of fervid tenn
permanent and hot speech, of liberal
education, and one of the most elo-
quent orators Of the House. In what
significant contrast to him appears
another man who made one Of the
strong speeches of the civil rights de-
bate-a colored man, an enfranchised
slave-James r. Lynch of Missis-
sippi. He is scarcely shade darker
than John Young Brown, and eleven
years younger, being but twenty
eight years of age. He received no
early education, and remained a slave
till the rebellion set him free.
When the Union troops entered
Natchez he obtained a chance to at
tend school for few months, and
since then, by private study, has ac-
quired 4 good English education. He
was elected to be member of the
Mississippi Legislature and became
Speaker OF its House was reelected
and then elected to be Il member of
the Forty third Congress of the Uni
ted States. He is Of rather slight
franz, the mental predominating in
him over the vital temperament. He
has an intellectual head, the reason
ing faculties strikingly predominant.
He has an aqniline nose, all olive COM
plexion, Il thoughtful and rather sad
expression, as if the dark shadows OF
his early lot had left shade of lin
gering sorrow behind. Fortune did
nothing for him till he had reached
mans estate. She put ban upon
his race, upon his education, upon
every right dear to human nature. In
Twelve years he has had to make up
for tho losses and the wrongs of all
the life that went before yet here he
IS, a Representative, of the people in
,he Congress Of the United States,

,red sons-John Young Brown. Yet,
% hear John Young Brown and his
talk. you would think that

How They Drop Shot.

A reporter Of the Bal timore An'cri
can thus describes one Of the man,
processfss of making shot in one o.
tie shottowers of Tint city: One
OF the 'fsecrets" of the manufacture
is the mixing Of the lead with a GER
tain proposition Of a combination o.
mineral substances called temper
The temper is fused with the lead
and gives the molten metal that con.
sistency which makes it drop, and
without which the lead would he
moulded by the sieve, and would
form little pencils instead Of round
shot. When "BB" shot, for in
stance, are to he made, the lead is
poured into a pan perforated with
h, les corresponding TO that size.
The little pellets come pnring down
in a continuous shower, and fall into
u tank filed with water on the ground
floor. In their descent Of two hun
dred feet they become perfect spheres
firm and dense, and they are toler-
ably cool when they strike the water,
although the swift conclusions make
the tank foam and bubble as if the
wateu was boiling furiously. The
shot must fall in the water, for if
they would strike any firm substance
they would be Aattened and Knocked
out Of shape. To get the little pei
let's perfectly dry after they have
been in.the "well," is the most diff
cult md troublesome process of the
whole 4, Manufacture. An elevator
with s1,nll buckets livery much like
those used in flour mills) carries the
shot up as fast as thay reach the bot
tom OF the we'll, and deposits them
in box GO feet above the first floor.
The water drips from the buckets as
they 20 up, and not much is poured
into the receiver above, although it
is intended to be sort Of dripping
machine. From this receiver the
shot rms d wn spont into dry
ing pan, which greatly resembles a
gigantic shoe, made of sheet iron.
The pan rests at an angle which per-
Inits the wet shot to roll slowly down
to the chamber below, and the pei
let's become perfectly dry as they pass
over the warm sheet-iron.

An Eccentric Star.

The most singular fact connected
with the proper motions Of the stars
is that one or two stars are flying
through space with such enormous
rkpidi'y that the combined attraction
Of all the stors visible with the teles-
cope could never stop them. This
seems to be especially the case with
a small star, invisible to the naked
eye, designated in Astronomical liter
allure rs G,oombridge, $780," from
the name of the astronomer who first
recorded its position. The rate Of
motion of the star is about seven
seconds per year-the greatest known.
1t was hence concluded that it must
be very near us, and a number as
tromers have sought to determine it's
parallax, but have found it to be only
n tenth of a second. It's apparent
motion in year being seventy timea
it parallax, it moves ut least seventy
times the distance from the earth to
the sun in year, or eighteen mil
lions of miles every miles every sec
ond. From what we know Of the
distribution, masses, and number Of
the stars, it seems pvoable that the
attraction of all tlm bodies in The
universe: can never stop this bead
long speed, nor bring this star into
an orbit, and that consequently it
will pass through our uni, erse, and
leave it entirely in its passage through
infinite space. If we had accurate
observations of the stars position
three or four thousand years ago, we
could speak with more certainty Of
its destiny. We may expect that
our posterity Of few thousand years
hence will, by the aid OF the observa-
tons and tables we shall transmit to
them, be able to come to definite
conclusion respecting the age and
the structure of the universe.
