People have heard and read Of toads
having been found embedded In rock,
but now comes another curiosity to be
added to the list. Mr. John Adriance ,of
this city, has Mexican coin dated ITO,
which was taken from the center OF
piece OF rock found in the bottom of the
Rio Grande. The gentleman who sent
the coin to this city, with the particu-
lars in connection with its discovery,
lives at Laredo, and not having specl-
men of the rock in which the COIN was
found imbedded, has been asked by gen.
tlemen connected with the Historical
Society, who are interested in the mat
ter, to do so, in order that theories as to
the time the coin found its way to the
bed OF the river may be deduced. The
finder of the coin writes that the rock ls
very hard and almost transparent.-[Gal'

The Ruin OF Fitzhugh.

From Deacon Richard Smiih's Cincinnati 0dsetts
The happy doorkeeper is doorkeeper no
more. Our FltzAugh has been taken from US
cut on like a big sunfOwer. But little while
ago he was "a bigger man with the members
than old Grant - now there Is no one to do MIN
reverence. Then he could not stir out Of his
ONCE without being pursued by tall OF Con-
Pressmen; now they have driven him from
them as II he were contaRion. Then he had
more invitations to frolic with Senators" than
he could accept now they leave him to mourn
IN solitude. Then =. y. Cox was such warm
friend to him rs never was; now Mr.. Cox Is the
Brutus among those who have thrust their dag
gers into HIM, Then he was a great favorite
with Mrs. Cox, Mrs. speaker Kerr, and Mrs. SEN
ator Gordon, and other wives Of Congressman;
now they Invite him no more. Then no had a
spanking team and Government coachman to
take nm whittersoever he listed, boy to take
his hat and cane. and attendants that sprung
whenever he moved ; now he goes forth afoot
ana alone, and In his solitary, humble apart
Inents he brushes his own clothes and blacks
his own boots, or, peradventure, leaves them
unkempt as In his former state at Austin.
His own political friends did this. They who
hoisted him TO such giddy height pulled him
down as suddenly. They who followed him for
his fayors, turned to rend him. 1t Is a tremen-
dous lesson on the mutabiiity Of fortune.

THE ARKANSAS SCANDAL.
Col. Curry Not the Mnn who Acted Is Agent
for the Brooks Parry.

WASHINGTON, May 2.-Col. Curry Of
Ark insas declares that he Is not the man who
came North from Arkansas to induce Judge
Pol nd to get his committee together In the
fall OF 1874, and proceed TO Arkansas to begin
the investigation which had been ordered at the
preceding session OF CONGRESS. lie AYERS that
he had no connection with the Brooks Baxter
fight and that he was In no way, either directly
or Indirectly, party to any negotiation looking
to the control OF Judge Poland, or to using any
means to corrupt Congress. He saws that lie
his no doubts that efforts were made on both
sides TO effect their purposes by corrupt means,
but ne was not q party to them, ana knew
nothing OF what was going on The use OF his
name. therefore. was an error which hasten to
correct, but at the same time | insist that the
missions OF one Of their party, send n man
North IN the fall Of 1874 TO induce Judge Poland
TO hasten to Arkansas TO begin the Investigation
ordered by Congress; that failing to induce
Poland to start at once. he made written agree
ment wit h some person I'm WashinHt on, VINO was,
for the confederation OF $4,000, to send Poland
to Arkansas, and secure from him a report
favorable to the Brooks party. These same
men now allege that they were outbid by the
Garland party, and that the money to accom-
plish this was raised here ON the notes of some
OF the Garland men.
There is undoubtedly a great scandal con-
nected with this whole Arkansas business, and
II the matter - touched at all IL ought to be
probed to the bot ON. II Poker Mcclure wants
Comuittee ougnt to make hin tell what ne de-
slTes to conceal, the Efforts he and his friends
made to secure a favorable action by tue House
VI Representatives through corrupt means.

A SPLENDID SCORE.
Yesterday's Game Of Base Ball Between the
~. Louis and Mutuai..

The Mutuals OF Brooklyn and the ST.
Louis CLUB OF st. Louis, played their second
match for the championship on tho UDion
grounds yesterday afternoon The first game
between these two clubs was won by tue 81. Louis
by a scors Of IL to 3, and 1t was thought they
would have an easy victory. The Mutuals
played good game. Pools were sold at 800 to
$40 that st. Louis would win. Mr.. Daniels OF
Hartford was the umpire, and the Mutuals went
first to the bat. Holdsworth got a base hit, but
stood between 1Ist and second, and let Delhi
man and McGeary put him out. Neither club
scored In the first two innings In the third
inning Mack got bis first on an error by Nichols,
base hit by Cuth0ert sent him TO third. Cuth-
bert ran on first base, and while
Start and Crayer we're trying to put him out,
Mack slipped home and scored one for the st.
Louis. In the fourth inning an error by HALT
han and one by Start gave the ~. Louis another
run. These two runs we're all they scored during
run would have been scored during the nine
innings. The Mutuas did not score a run. In
the last inning Haldsworth and Start got base
hit, but HoldswOrth was forced out on third
base. Macy got his first on an error by Bradley.
and Hollihan got his irst on bad throw ty
Battin. This left man on all three bases, and
Il looked very much as II the Mutuals would
win, but spirited pickup and throw by Mack
put Crayer out at first, and closed the game In
favor Of the -. Louis by the following score:
