Curious Facts About Blind Tom.

and he begun to excite attention as q
musician at the age Of four years. ALL
sounds afford him delight; even the cry
ing of child causes him to dance about
in state OF ecstasy. When at home he
often bit and piuched his brothers and
sisters to make them emit cries of pain.
If kept away from piano, he will beat
against the wall, drag chairs about the
room, and make all sorts Of noises.
When in Ldndona flute was procured
for him of a very complicated pattern,
and haying twenty-five keys. He fire.
quently rises up at night aud plays this
Instrument pimitatingupon it all sorts of
sounds. which he may hear at the time.
Once when the agent attempted to make
him stop playing piano in q high-toned
hotel at three O'Clock in the morning,
Tom seized him and threw him through
the door. In Washington he threw a
man down stairs who came into his
room., When at, home in Georgia he
LIVES ID Ea building about two hundred
yards from the house, and there re-
mains alone with his piano, playing all
Jay and night, like one possessed with
madness. Bad weather has an effect
upon his music. :, In cloudy, rainy 9ea-
sons, he, plays !somber music in minor
chords; and when the sun shines and the
birds sing, he INDUCES in waltzes and
light music. Sometimes he will hammer
away for hours, producing the most ho--
rible discords imaginable. Suddenly a
change comes over him, and he INDUCES
in magnificent bursts of harmony taken
from the best productions of the mas
ters. Since his childhood he has been
an idiot, and heplayed nearly as we'll at
the age Of seven as be does now; but
now bis repertoire is much larger. as he
can play anything he has ever heard:
He now plays about 1000 pieces, and
picks up new ones everywhere. 1t is q
curious fact that he will not play any
Sunday school music if he can help it,
having great dislike for it.

Drained by q Lunatic.

Mr.. John Shank, q wealthy farmer,
seventy-si1 years Of age, living on Salt
Fork creek, about six mills north from
FLawrenceburg, Indiana, was discovered
by his daughter, Eliza Shank, lying up
against an old smokehouse, gasping in
the ''agonies Of death, with the blood
oozing from his mouth and nose, and
with the entire back of his skull mashed
and crushed in horrible manner. Miss
Shank at first was petrifed with horror,
and then, with a piercing scream, alarm.
ed the inmates of her home, all of whom
came rlshing out just in time to see the
old man fall back corpse: At first 1t
was thought; that Mr.. Shank had been
plundered and then murdered, but the
discovery Of the bloody az with which
the murder had been committed lying
near the victim, and the sight immedi-
ately thereafter Of Ezra Shank saunter-
ing leisurely up from the barn, which lis
located not more than dozen yards
from the scene OF the tragedy, together
with the knowledge that he had been
chopping wood not ten minutes before
the crime was committed, convinced
the friends Of the deceased that the
crime was q patrieide, and that Ezra was
the guilty son. This son is now forty
eight years of age. and for. nearly a
quarter Of a century has been hopeless
ly insane. Until very recently, how
ever, be had never been suspected Of
being vicious; indeed, he had been CON
sidered perfectly harmless, and the
most OF the time was kept about the
old homestead rather than in an asylum
because Of his harmlessness. b He is 4 Of
q powerful frame, being over six feet
high and weighing upward of 250
pounds, constituting, therefore, any
thing but q frail antagonist in q desper-
ate fight. His father was q man equally
tall, but by no means so heavy, besides
being enfeebled by his weight Of nearly
fourscore years. !'"r -" J'i3 '".i% =:
Ezra had been of late ven, obstinate
and lazy, and once or twice had in
dulged in some savage threats whenever
any Of the children, of whom there are
ten, all grown and nearly all living at
home, insisted on his doing any work.
No attention, however, was paid to
these threats, and Ezra was requested to
take the az and break up some wood.
In compliance he took the az, but in
going to work was very sulky and would
answer no. questions. 1t is supposed
that bis father happened along when be
felt most vicious and begun o converse
tion, when, with the: horrible despera-
tion of-sr madman, the son raised the
cruel ak and dashed i out his fathers
brains. The sight presented was sicken-
ing in the extreme, and the aged wife
and mother, on beholding it, tainted,
and has ever since: been utterly pros
trated, only lowering between life and
death. The sons at first were frenzied
and sought to question their brother,
but they could get moth ng out of him.
He would answer no questions, and
when shown the ifeless body Of his
father evinced n' more, concern than
had he been, discussing the weather.

p1A71,s PERFIDIoUs PLoT.-Mr. Plat has
made full confession Of his ubiquitous
scheme to secure the murder Of Dir. Goode,
and as we do not wish to be uniustwe print
elsewhere his statement, which by strange
moral obliquity he puts forth as rindica-
ton! This document constitutes, as we
have said, full confession, and an eXaml-
nation of it will sustain us fully. He raises
one or two trivial issues, it is true. but OBJ
serve, on his own showing, he copied the
letters with his oUn hand, altered, and
amended them. Moreover, he says:
"Believing that it would compel notice
from Mr.. Goode this arrangement was made
with Captain Coe and myself. His address
Goes was left with the editor Of the ne,
publican. Any communication which might
come to Paxton was to be sent to Coe. tie
was to refer the writer to me, and was 70
notify whoever it might be that William d;
Coe was the author Of the Paxton letters
&c
And now, in order to understand the Tell
and murderous intention OF this reference,
we reproduce the draft Of Platts note
drawn by that would-be assassin for Coe to
write when called OH by Mr.. Goode. Ii
reads as follows:
WASHINGTON, D. G.

. Mr. Seymour Declines.

However much we may regret the de-
.clination Of Mr.. SEYMOUR, we cannot say
that we arc surprised at it, So confident
were we that he would accept no Office, that
we did not mention his name amongst those
which we gave on Wednesday as the names
OF the most prominent candidates for the
office of Governor, though we were well
aware that he would surely be Dominatedil
he would consent to run. His refusal to ac-
,cept this high honor must be the cause OF
more orless embarrassment to the Democrats
.oI New York. His name is the one OF all
Others which could best have served rs a
rallying cry for all the clans into which the
party OF that State is unfortunately divided.
What will be done now remains to be seen.
We would suppose Mr.. A. H. GREEN to be
the most available candidate. After him,
Mr.. DORsBEIMER or Mr.. POTTER. We see
that the New York World and JOHN
KELLY are denouncing Messrs. GREEN and
DoRsHEIMEE. But the World, like Mr.. KEEL
LIZ, is poor authority. Both opposed the
nomination OF Mr.. TILDES; and doubtless
Mr.. DoEsuEIaER's untiring labors in behalf
OF Mr.. TlLDEN are what the World and
KELLY have against him. When we see
such paper recognized as an organ OF the
party in New York, and such q man as q
leader, we feel no little disgust. A party
thus led must be led into difficulties.
We await the developments Of the future.
As the Convention had adjourned before
Mr.. SEYMoUg's determination was known,
the duty OF nominating a candidate in his
stead will now dcyolvc upon the State Cen
tral Executive Committee. Mr.. TILDEN's
wishes will control that committee. II our
voice could be heard, we would say let the
World and JOHN KELLY do as they Will, but
nominate GREEN and DoRsHEIMEE, or Por-
TER and DoRsHEMER, or DORsHElMER and
GREEN. Arrange them as you please, but
put two Of these three names upon the
ticket as the candidates for Governor and
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
1t is 4 ''ticklish business" There Is no
time TO be lost in weighing the probabilities
and calculating the chances. The politician
who hesitates is lost.

enable Platt to behold the death OF his VIC
tim on the " field Of honor y under the pls-
tol OF man known to be OF desperate
