As the sinews of war of the Packard Gov
eminent in Louisiana are effectually severed,
il must soon show evidence of being ham,
strung. Very complicated, indeed, is the pO-
litical situation there, but the end must be
drawing nigh, while Mr.. Packard cannot col
lect dollar of taxes, and Mr.. Nichols is gath
ering in the funds as readily as though he
were the undisputed Governor.

There may be some timOrous Republicans
who have feared, and some over sanguine
Democrats who have hoped, that the over
throw of the Packard Administration might
throw a doubt on the validity of the election
of the President No such forebodngs dwell
with the President himself; and Mr.. Evarts,
who is about as good authority on the subject
as anybody, is not in the least alarmed about
the quo parrantO or any other bubble.

We present in another column a sketch of
the Blackwelrs Island Bridge, which may be
.xpected one of these days to span the East
River. The structure can be cheaply built
compared with the great East River Bridge,
and will serve almost as good purpose.
The value of either of these bridges must
largely depend upon their being made parts

We yesterday happened to be standing
on South @ street in company with
Tom Lane, the well-known engineer,
when Buffalo Bill passed along.
He reminds me-" said Tom, "of
Captain Harry Love, the famous Texan
ranger, though Harry Love was an older
man when saw him and his hair was
much blacker I shall never forget my
first meeting with Captain Love. I was
quite boy and had stopped for the
night at hotel in Marysville. The
house was crowded, and myself and an
elderly gentleman were put in a double
bed in large room in the front part of
the second story.
"A little after daylight there was a
loud rapping ut our door.
Who is there?'' cried my compan-
ion.
"'Captain Harry Love, said voice,
and the voice then added 1 wish to
come into your room a moment
My companion arose and let the
captain in, when he said : i have been
exhibiting here and have some traps
under the bed which I wish to get, as l
show tonight in another town. l am

traps we're being examined by ry COM

is that boy with you?'
"M My partner said my room mate.
"Wake him up and let him have a
look at my show, as it will probably be
his last chance, said Love.
-" Not much, cried I. I don't want
to see your show, and I wouldn't have
slept in this bed for 81 900 had l known
what was under it,
Il turned my face to the wall until
the show was removed, and that was
my first meeting with Captain Harry
Love and my first and last opportunity
of seeing the head of Joaquin and the
hand OF Three-fngered Jack.'

FRANKS Of COLLEGE BOYS.
[Irom the New York Herald, June 2lst.l

[From the New York Herald, June 2lst.l
The students of Harvard College were
out on lark last night and succeeded
in playing some practical jokes on the
residents OF Harvard street. They first
visited the back yard Of No. 209 Harvard
street, where they stole the clothes line,
and took it to the yard of No. 205, where,
after suspending it, they hung fifteen
pair of ladies drawers, number of
chemises and several pairs of stockings,
which they had probably taken from
some other back yard. Among the
chemis-s suspended from the line was
one which was stolen from the same
premises more than eight months ago.
The articles were in "a good state Of pre-
servation, and had evidently been IN
used dutine all this time. The parties
next broke pane of GLASS in th teue.
ment window of 205, occupied by Mrs.
Harrington; turned the window fasten-
fng and made raid through the house,
without, however, awakening any of the
occupants. A boz, containing valuable
silver cake basket, belonging to Mrs.
Harrington, was broken, but the cou-
tents were left on the floor uniniured
A trunk, containing large number of
articles of wearing apparel, belonging to
a lady connected with the public schools
of Cambridge, was broken into, the con-
tents turned out upon the floor, and o
careful inspection made of everything,
but nothing was carried away. Another
lady who occupied a roon in the house
was less fortunate, for the raiders seized
upon and carried away pair of boots
belonging to her, pair of corsets and a
new hustle. House No. 2O7 was passed
by withou. disturbance, owing. no doubt,
to the vigilance of faithful watch dog.
Early this morning there was con-
vention of schoolma ams in the back
yards, and warm discussion ensued as
to the best method of Furnishing unhoIy
Harvard. One lady, the wife of prom
Inent lawyer, aDd who lost some valu-
able articles of underwear, was frantic
with rage, and with pistol in hand she
threatened to blow out the brains of
every student in Christendom unless the
articles stolen by the wicked students
are returned at once.

THE RECORD
A CAVE IN NEW YORK.
A Curious Natural Cavern.

Quite an important and interesting
disvovery was recently made at Sleeper's
Gorge, Laurena. This gorge has become,
for several years past, OF considerable
note, because Ct its wild rock and forest
scenery, /. I'D Teen often visited by par.
ties on tbat account. But the discovery
OF large cavern there was reserved for
J. B. Shove, W. II. Widger and A. &.
Strong, during recent visit, and was
purely accidental in all respects, In de-
scendlng the terrace of rocks at the very
head of the gorge, one of the party
slipped and fell into mess OF decaying
logs and underbrush accumulated by
Spring freshets, to extrlcate him 1t was
necessary to clear away some OF the rub
bish, and by 50 doing it was found that
the water had loosened n ledge of rocks
and earth, 80 az to disclose small
orihce. Curiosity impelled them to en-
large the opening. which soon merged
into a tunnel some three feet in dame
ter, extending into the hill in an easterly
direction, rather ascending. Alter trav'
ersing the tunnel several feet. which con-
tinued to grow larger as they advanced,
they concluded that quite discovery
had been made, and IN considerable ex-
citement went after lights to make q
thorough examination.
After procuring lights, ropes, ETC.,
they again entered the tunnel which,
though damp and dripping at the en-
trance soon grew dry and dusty, pro-
tected by the sheltering rock above, and
was filed with pure air. At distance
of fifty feet it terminated into cave
about twenty feet square and nine high,
with a very irregular roof of finty rock.
and here came the remarkable part of
the discovery. In one corner lay a
heap OF seeming small rocks, covered
with dust, but which, on examination,
proved to be nuggets of pure lead,
weighing in ali about ton. Besides it,,
half buried it, the dry earth, partly de-
cayed skeleton, the skull and larger bones
nearly perfect, and scattered about we're
several curious copper implements.
Nothing more was found, nor any outlet
to the cave than that entered. Of course,
there will be many surmises with regard
to the lead and how it came there.
There has long been legend extani
among the old settlers here Of lead
mine in the vicinity. and of the Indians,
when inhabitants of this region, bring
I ing in Jumps of lead, but refusing to tel
where obtained. Probably it was
brought from the lake region and thii
cave made store-house, and the skele
thvt of m Indian. At any rate the dis
covery is veri6cation of the old legend
and. withal, of some considerable valu g

The origin of the word Canada" is
curious enough. The Spaniards visited
this country previous to the French, and
made particular search for gold and
silver. and finding none, they often sang
among themselves Aca NADIA, there
is nothing here. The Indians who
watched closely, learned this sentence
and its meaning. The French arrived,
and the Indians (who wanted none of
their company, and supposed they were
also Spaniards on the same errand) were
anxious to inform them in the Spanish
sentence "Aca nada." The French who
knew as little Spanish as the Indians,
supposed this necessarily recurring
sound was the name of the country, and
gave it the name Of Canada" which it
has borne ever since.
