SACRAMENTO, Sept. Last night,
Angus Martin, the manager of the Inter
national, suicided, taking strychnine.
He was very deliberate about it. called
his night clerk to bis bath room and
while in the bath told him he intended
to kill himself. He talked some time on
business affairs, said he had worked for
five years and saved nothing. He then
put on his night clothes and took poison ;
the clerk gave the alarm and an officer
ran to Martins room, when Martin
coolly showed him the bottle he had
taken poison from and asked him if it
would kill. He then went to bed and
was soon taken with commissions and
dled. he was quite popular here and
was looked upon as an active. careful
business man. He was married to the
owner OF the hotel. Mrs. Eisenminger.
The hotel was in bankruptcy about year
ago but got clear and was supposed to be
doing good business of late. No sufi-
Gent cause. as yet has developed for the
strange action of the suicide. He was
thirty-sx years of age, native of Prince
Edward Island.

Fun on q Steam boat.


lrrom the milwaukee Sentinel
Southern papers have fuller particu.
lars OF pleasant little affair which oc.
Cured on board a Mississippi steam er
recently, and which shows that although
the code has almost become tradition
even IN Mississippi, the spirit which
once made human killing an honorable
occupation has not wholly passed away,
Robbed of rhetoric, the facts are easily
told. Mr.. Lanier and MIR. Tompk,ns
went aboard the boat at Lake Providence
and. being Southern gentlemen, naturally
found their way to the bar. They were
enjoying the characteristic "cawk tail. I"
when major Montgomery and several
other gentlemen" sauntered up to the
bar. They had all met before, and were
ready for fun. SO Major Montgomery
playfully tapped Mr.. Lanier on the skull
with his revolver, sinking the hammer
into that valuable box. SCATTERING the
pistol but not perceptbly marrine the
enjoyment. for Mr.. Lanier, with fine
pollteness, drew bis little Colts con-
verser and blazed at the jocose Major.
fompkns kindly did the same, and the
JOY became general. AS in the mystery
of Gilgnl,
"rhe coats went off and all went in;
Shouts and bad language swelled the din,
And the short, sharp banks of derrngers,
Like bull-pups, cheered the furse'
Lanier had been in a pleasant party of
this kind before, and hence only had his
left hand with which to shoot. When
all the pistols aboard had ceased making
remarks, an inventory was taken. Lanier
as usual, had the most glory. His right
ear and one OF his fingers were gone, and
he had bullet in his left arm. Major
Morgan had an elegant wound in his
left hip, and two others were neatly
scratched. The saloon of the boat was a
well ventilated wreck. No arrests were
made or attempted, and the perform
ance, as whole, was regarded as rather
creditable. An old feud was the cause.
ALLEGED SwINpLE A Chicago special
OF the 18th says: The examination of
the Indian office OF the North Carolina
and western Cherokees has led to the
unesrthlng OF Democratic swindle, ex-
tending through three administrations
and amounting to over S3. 600 ono of
money stolen which was Appropriated bv
Congress at various times in connectjon
with the removal Of the Cherokees from
Northern Georgia and vicinity to the In.
dian Territory. A good portion of the
money appropriated under the treaty of
removal went into the hands of those in
the Democratic ring which maneged the
affair, and which, through the admins
trations OF Polk, Pierce and Buchanan,
continued to press their claims, insert
bills and secure appropriations for ex-
penses incurred in their removal. When
the actual cost Of removal in many cases
was only twenty dollars head. from one
hundred and fifty to two hundred dol
lars was charged. and bills for the re.
moval of fictitious numbers Of Indians
were submitted and allowed. The in
vestigation thus far involves number
OF Democratic politicians of the Admin
istrations named. and has shown that
money stolen outright was not less than
$4,000

CuocrAw CoURTsuIP AND MsrRIMONY.-
The Indians talk little under any circum-
stances. Thus 1t is naturally 10 be sup
posed that when young fellow dons ms
best (Which is generally set off with cali
co blouse, having large, flaming sleeves,
and his hat stuck full OF feathers, with two
or three yards of scarlet ribbon hanging
down his back) he would be about speech
less by the time he arrives at the "old man S
mansion. After dismounting from his pony
he takes his position on the fence, and sits
there till he sees his fair one at the door,
when he grins audibly. and if she does like
wise he takes it for granted that he Is well
come, and goes into the house, which gene
rally consists of one room, and contains all
the family. and therein he has to make bis
speech. which at the farthest amounts to
three grunts His success depends very
much upon an invitation to smoke by the
father OF the courted lass. If the " old
man" has any respect for him he lights his
pipe, and after taking whiif hands 1t to
the young man, who 10 turn takes whlff,
and so they proceed, Whit about. Ihe
length of time they smoke depends altogeth-
er on the esteem tine father has Tor the beau.
After a certain number of such visits he
finally musters up courage enough to say.
"Che -te -ha- li-de-la- Ii um mi" which means
in English, "Will you have me ~ 1t she
says "Ky-yo." which means No." he
takes himself off. 1t she gives grunt the
preparations are made.
On the day appointed Tor the wedding the
bridegroom arrives on pony, and leading
another that has a side-saddle Tor the BRIDE.
On arriving at the house, without dlsmount-
ing, he tastens her ponv to the fence. aud
then rides off short distance In the direc-
-. ho hrid
steps out, dressed in the height of fashion
"a new calico dress, a white pocket-hand-
kerchief around the neck, and large red
one tied over her head and ears, and pair
of now shoes across her arms, which she
puts on lust before reaching the parson $.
As soon as she mounts her pony the man
starts on, and she follows from fifty to two
hundred yards behind. On arriving at the
parsonage he gets off, ties his horse. and
goes into the house and makes his business
known. By this time the lady arrives, dis
mounts, secures her horse and goes 20 the
house, leans herself on the side of ir near
the door. and patiently waits till some one
discovers her and bids her enter. All things
boing in readiness, the minister, who Is
usually white missionary, motions the
couple to stand up, and performs the cere-
mony in English. which IS about as intelli-
gible to them as Greek; but " hen the min
ister stops talking they depart, leaving the
poor clergyman without fee or thanks.
They usually 60 to the husbands parents
and stay about a year before attempting the
arduous duties Of housekeeping. After
getting married Choctaw does as they do
in Indiana-thst is, if he doesn't like the
squaw, he gets divorce. which is granted
on the most frivolous pretext.- Cheyenne

ment to his side SO. too. . unity in the

lines. while the various phases Of national
conservatism play an important part in the
solution Of this national and political prob
lem. l will not enter into the details Of
this project. in which have become much
interested the main features are as here
sketched. Belgium presents q view of gov
ernmental working Of railways. to whose
efficiency the public testify. Italy. perhaps
more than any other European State. offers
a strong argument in its favor, on account
Of her geographical position.
The north of Italy lies between France
and Austria. Switzerland is not to be
taken into account as . dangerous clement.
Since 1867, government has assumed con-
troll of Italian Railways, operating them to
advantage despite the economic difficulties
of the country. Up to this time France,
England and Belgium had control Of the
lines Of northern Italy with the natural fiuc-
tuations Of stocks inherent to these three
countries. Since the change. there is q
manifest improvement not only in their in-
ternal administration. but also in the polit-
ical aspect OF Italy towards its neighbors.
The question there, however, is by no
means settled as to its final benefit to the
State, on account of the depreciation of
Italian industries, and their dependence
upon other than Italian capital.
