A correspondent, who commanded a
company under Col. Lockridge in
Walkers Nicaraguan expedition, re-
views tho causes Of the final overthrow
Of the celebrated filibuster and handles
him without gloves. We print the let
ter as an interesting chapter, correct or
incorrect, of the history Of a scheme Of
conquest which, at one time, deeply in
terested not only this community, but
the whole country. In our own recent
references to Walkers expedition it has
not been our purpose either to extol or to
censure that leader, and we very cheer
fully print anything from the sur
vivors OF his expedition.

Boss Packard, he with the "souare

mug, as testified to by the Enquirer
man, has let go his grip and is Just
now as far gone in misanthropy and
totally sick Of the world as ever was
Lady Lillicraft's poodle. as will
appear from the following, clipped from
the Cincinnati Gazette:
"NicholIs Is in, said he, "and am out,

Until minorities elect, Hayes title
cannot be better than, or as good as,
Packard's." Thus discoursed Pitkin to
the Washington Republican In gush
Of confidence with a brother Repub-
lican. It Is notable confession OF this
very voluble and exacerbated Federal
ex-ofIlcial. Hayes has no better title
than Packard; both were elected by
minorities. And yet Pitkin Is recon-
mended as the potent instrument in
effecting this result Of electing by mi
nority and arrays long list of emil
nent CD gentlemen who Endorsed his
merits.

Hon. John Randolph Tucker, of Vir-
ginia, does not believe that Hayes pol
ICY will disintegrate the Conservative
party In the South, nor that the Presi-
dent expects it will. He thinks the
choice for Governor OF Virginia will lie
between Major Daniel and Gen. Ma
hone. To Malone he attributes the or
ganization OF the Conservative party In
that State and the election Of Gov. Gill
bert Q. Walker, which. he says, saved
Virginia from the fate of Louisiana and
South Carolina. Mr.. Tucker is evident
iy Malone man. He believes q Dem.
ocratic success assured.

and the bleached skeletons of marin,

and the bleached skeletons of marine
monsters"
With minds stored with such
cheerful details and enlivening tra-
ditions as the foregoing, Commander
Markham, Lieut.. Parr, and the fully
equipped sledge parties started on
their bleak journey northward when
spring cume. The men were de-
moralized by superstiteAs fears. the
officers in Command were discour-
aged. Their track had to be hewn
through the up-reared ridges of ice
by pickaxes. They labored between
sixty and seventy days, and on the
18th of May reached the highest lat
titude attained by any modern expe-
dition-that of SO deg. 20 min. 26
sec. north, or within 400 miles of
the mystery OF the pole. They
lacked the courage to penetrate that
mystery, and Capt. Mares and his
discounted command find it conve-
nient to assert that there is no open
Polar Sea. At the same time scien-
fists and navigators in both Cont
nents unite in pronouncing Capt.
Mares mistaken and his expedition a
failure. But none OF his wealthy
denouncers exhibit any alacrity to
lead the way to tho pole to hoist
their country's flag there. For
every recently recorded fact proved
the existence not of q "Sea of An
cient Ice"-"t the Palaocrystic or
Pal~ocruic Sea-" but whirlpool
sea, whose borders are fringed with
varying masses OF gigantic icebergs
centuries old. There are secrets of
nature which man, it would appear,
is not destined to unlock. The pole
and the aurora borealis seem to be-
long to these. The mystery is like
that of the life eternal; it can only
be so!ed by yielding up the life
present.

Browns Matrimonial Method,

The Dubuque Telegraph relates the
following:
"Bown, don't see how it is that
your girls all marry off as soon as
they get old enough while none OF
mine can marry.
"Oh! that's plain enough. ]
marry my girls off on the buckwheat
straw principle.
but what is that principle? l
never heard of it before"
"Well, I used to raise a good
deal of buckwheat and it puzzled me
to know how to get rid Of tho straw.
Nothing would eat it, and it was a
great bother to me. Atlast l thought
of plan. sucked my buckwheat
straw nicely and built high rail
fence aroundit. My cattle, of course,
concluded that it was something
good and at once tore down the
fence and began to eat the straw.
I dogged them away and put up the
fence a few times, but the more l
drove them away the more anxious
they became to eat the straw. After
this had been repeated few times
the cattle determined TO eat the
straw, and eat it they did, every bit
of it. AS 1 said, marry my girls
off on the same principle. When a
young man I don't like begins call
ing on my girls I encourage him in
every way l can. tell him to come
often and stay as late as he pleascs,
and I take pains to hint to the girls
l think they'd best set their caps
for him. 1t works frst-rate. He
don't make many calls, for the girls
treat him as cody as they can. But
when young man that like comes
around, man that I think would
suit me for a son-in-law, don't let
him make many calls before I give
him to understand that he isn't
wanted around my house. / tell
the girls, too, that they shall moi
have anything to do with him, and
give them orders never to speak tc
him again. The plan always works
first-rate. The young folks begin
to pity each other, and the next
thing know they are engaged to be
married. When I see that they are
determined to marry, give in and
pretend to make the best of it.
That's the way I manage it."

On FROM WooD.-In Sweden the
manufacture of illuminating oil from
wood has become largo and success
full, industry. The roots and stumps
of trees are employed for the purpose.
The wood is subjected to dry distilla-
ton, with exclusion ofair, and a varie-
ty of products are formed which are of
value in arts. Among these may be
mentioned turpentine, creosote, tar,
acetic acid, charcoale, oil OF tor and
oil of wood. The wood oil cannot be
burned in an ordinary lamp, but a
camphene lamp can easily be adapted
for the purpose. It is not explosive
and is remarkably cheap. The pine
tree is the best adapted for distillation,
and there are Is establishments in
operation in Sweden. three of which

IT Is reported that the Illinois
Central Railroad Company proposes
to abandon its Iowa line unless the
rental is reduced to % per cent of
the gross earnings. In 1867 the
Central leased the Dubuque and
Sioux City road for twenty years,
with an option of ninety-nine years.
The rent for the fist ten years was
to be 35 per cent of the gross earn
ings, and for the last ten years SO
per cent. According to the contract
the Central can abrogate the lease
after ninety days refusal to pay the
rental. The reason of the proposed
action is alleged to be serious losses
to the Central in operating the Iowa
line last year.-Siour city Jo"rna'.

The advocates of Mr. Gears nom
nation for Governor, are still bat
Ting fiercely with that remark made
sometime since, by somebody or
some paper, not precisely acquainted
with the facts, that Mr.. Gear was a
wholesale liquor merchant. The
very intensity with which the papers
in the Gear interest, are bouncing
this man of straw, is suspicious. 1t
looks rs though they would like to
obscure the main issue, with regard
to the availability of Mr.. Gear as a
5 candidate. That issue is whether by
his attitude toward the temperance
question, and to some extent his per.
sonal record Oh that point, Mr.
Gear is not likely, as candidate, to
ALLEVIATE a large element of the Re.
publican party in the campaign, and
introduce discord and dissention in
the ranks. We have already express
I'd our opinion, that Mr.. Gear is an
able and honest man, but there are
other able and honorable men in the
field, and among these, the plain du.
ty of the party is to select the one
|who will be likely to poll the most
votes, and best harmonic all classes
Of Republicans in the State. To
best arrive at a solution of this. ques-
ton, requires neither heat nor invec-
tive, on one side or the other.

TIE Lieutenant Govcrnorship of
Iowa, seems to be on begging tour
among the editorial fraternity Of the
State. 1t was but few months
since that the name of Shannon of
the Elkader Journal was quite tree
ly banded about in that connection;
then came the suggestion from the
Southern part of the State, that
Leighton, of the Oskaloosa Herald,
would be the man for the position,
an opinion, however, in which Leigh
ton did not coincide; and now John
d. Hunter, of the Webster City
Freeman, is being warmly endorsed
for the same place. All these are
most excellent suggestions, and eth
er of the gentlemen named would
fill the position with honor to him
self and credit to the profession.
But, as the Lieut.. Governorship is re-
garded a somewhat ornamental po-
sition, and as editors as rule are
modest, it is not probable that one of
the craft will be captured.

DISTRICT NOTES.
John Diltz, who came here from
Michigan, with the, determination to
marry a widowed clerk in the Treas
ury, named Storer, and shot her be-
cause she refused, was tried and &C
quilted yesterday, under the insanity
plea. Mrs. Storer's life was saved
by the ball striking one Of the steels
in her corsets. Diltz has a wife and
family in Michigan, and is undoubt-
eddy insane. He has been sent to
the Insane Asylum, where It is hop
ed he will be retained. We have
had the Weedon-Goodman matter
on hand for years. First, Goodman
shot Weldon, and when the latter
recovered from his dangerous
wounds, he returned the compliment
by shooting Goodman, who, when
convalescent, tried again to kill
Weldon. Both were put under ar
rest, and this week were convicted.
But while the Court was preparing
to sentence both to the Penitentiary,
Goodman deliberately walked out of
the Court House, and disappeared.
The police as usual were not there,
but are now doing gallant duty try
ing to find HIM. A few days since,
some scoundrel entlced q young girl
OF Is from B ltimore, to accompany
him here, under the pretence Of TAX
ing her to Alexandria, Va, as gov
erness for his chilren. He found 4
pretcxt to detaln her over night in
one of our hotels, where he brutally
outraged her under threats and prom
Uses. The matter rs laid before the
Grand Jury,is sickening in its details.
An Indictment was found, and if the
william can be found, he will receive
punishment TO the full extent Of the
law.

The A. o. U. w.
Clinton Herald.

Past Grand Master Z. S. Towle ar
rived home from Chicago on Tues
day, the Supreme Lodge, A. o. u
w., having completed its seven days
session, which was one of the most
important ever held in this Order
We understand the whole secret
work was revised, very radical
changes being made that will be ap.
preciated by members of the frater.
nifty.
The Supreme Lodge set apart the
States of New York, Kentucky and
Illinois as separate insurance juris-
dictions, each having attained the re-
CURED membership of 1000. AS
Pennsylvania, Ohio and Iowa had
been previously set apart, it leaves
only the States of Indiana, Missouri,
Tennessee, Wisconsin, Minnesota
and California within the Supreme
Lodge. The Order, as is thus indi-
Gated, is growing steadily and rapid
