THE EAST.

In reference to an intimation that the Baltimore and Ohio railroad is cutting rates from Chicago, in violation of the recent agreement between the trunk lines, Receiver Jewett, os the Erie railroad, in reply to ques. tions on the subject, said that he had re- ceived no information indicating that the Baltimore and Ohio managers had violated the compact, and he did not believe they had done so.
 Dr. R. H. Green, of Hoosick, New York, was thought to be dead, and his body was placed in the vault about three weeks ago. AS he had narrowly escaped burial while in trance several years since, his wife was requested to visit his body until no doubt of his death existed. It is now stated that on Saturday, the 14th, signs of life were noticed and his body was removed from the vault The attending physicians pronounce the case one of suspended animation.
 Major Reno, recently tried by court marshal on the charge of insulting the wife of a brother officer and sentenced to be dis missed from service, has forwarded to the war department request for delay in the presen- tation of the case to the president, claiming that he has additional evidence which will tend to mitigate the sentence. The request has been granted.
 The board of directors of the Rock Is- land railroad at meeting on the 18th su- thorized the vice.president and the treas urer to receive cash bids for the six per cent. forty-year bonds until April 25th. They also directed that the forty thousand two hundred shares of stock in the company s treasury shall be transferred into the names of Vice.President David Dows and Treasurer Lows until the legal authority, which they say is now wanting, can be obtained to can. eel these shares,

TH F WEST,

The trouble which has existed in the roling-mill at Springfield, III, for some days between the company and the men in regard to wages, has been settled. The men acceded in the main to the wishes of the company, and the company arranged some minor details in accordance with the wishes of the men.
 The general freight agents of the trunk lines, on the 18th, fixed as basis for the rates on live stock between Chicago and New York-forty.fve cents on hogs and fifty cents on cattle, with difference of two cents in favor of Philadelphia, and three cents in favor of Baltimore. Rates to oth CT points unchanged.
 Two men named Tate and Dodson, of Cincinnati, attempted to settle quarrel over woman by fighting duel on the 18th, back of Ludlow, Kentucky. The principals were in earnest and exchanged two shots, but the seconds had omitted the bullets, and no dam. age was done. No arrests

Oft as thy thoughts are over proud md gay
 With pomps of life and glories of the world,
 Or Sorrows knotted serpents round thee eurfd Feiter thine arms and eat thy heart away, Turn back and look upon the solemn Past;
 Thiuk thou what all hath been what all shall be; Those pale gray hues of our Mortality Are joys that faded, woes that could not last. Stand thou on Memory's peak at set of Day.
 And in the dusky air, 'twixt Noon and Night, Which is the funeral torch. and which the light That goes before the bridal. canst thou say? As moonlit gardens with their alleys gray
 Invite more lovers than the glorious Morn; As the bright Champaign with its waved corn Into soft seas of azure dies away; As mountains with their pinnacle of ice,
 As barren crags lit with the flame of Even. Look beautiful, and stars come forth in Heaven When day no longer dazzles in the skies; As unseen violets yield their rares balm,
 As trumpet notes wax sweet upon the wind, As lovely colors float before the blind, As torrent waters from afar look calm; So Joy grows tender. Sorrows self is mild. Forgotten voices sweet as music seem,
 And stormy troubles quiet dream, And Good and III, old foes, seem reconciled. --Frederick Tenauson in Claring Cross Magdsiae.

 ORIGIN OF THE FIRE--MR. FoRp's STATE
 MENT.
 St. Louis correspondent Chicago Times: The fire had its origin in the store room under the office. There seems to no reason to doubt that further. The flames had communicated well among combustible material in that place and had almost reached the elevator before anybody had observed them. The dis covery seems to have been made almost simultaneously by George w. Ford, the night clerk, at the time on duty in the office, and two or three of the other em- ployes. Mir. Ford makes the following statement: l was standing behind the counter transferring the names to the ledger when Ismelled something like wool burning. I said to a one-legged fellow that was on the outside of the counter, a smell something like wool" and then he said he did, toe. turned right around to the back window, only step of. and opened it. The whole back part of the hotel was ablaze, and 1 saw at once there was no hope to save the place. turned right around again and turned the district fire-alarm, and then sent one of the bell-boys out with fire alarm key to turn on general alarm. I then sent five men up through the hotel to wake up everybody, and I myself stood in the rotunda and yelled fire as loud as could over and over again. I could save nothing but the office books, and came near not saving them. The safe was already locked, and everything in it is now probably as good as ever. In two minutes after the alarm of fire was given in the house, the steps leading down to the office floor were filled with the hotel guests and employees, but all egress was cut off by the smoke. The fact of it is, the whole thing was like that (snapping his fDger). carried two ladies down the ladies' entrance, and went up for another one, when 1 was overcome by the smoke, and if it had not not been for freedman, one of our bakers, would probably now be among the ruins somewhere. Those that were saved may think the mselves mighty lucky. At.the same time that Mr. Ford made his discovery one of the employees

 They are still troubled at Atlanta over the shower of .'webb.footed birds of large size and tropical appearance" which oc. cured Sunday morning.
 Columbus (Ga.) Times: The grass hoppers which visited us Friday night, when compared with the grasshoppers which in> fested the northwestern states of Missouri,
 ansas and Iowa, are found to be greatly dissimlar. From some specimens sent from Iowa to Judge Brooks, the grasshoppers of these parts are only an inch in length and of dull reddish color, while ours are three times the length of the former, and exactly like the common grasshopper of the fields.
 The St. Augustine (Fla.) Press says: Last week school of sharks came into port and "made it lively" for the fishermen. They could be seen jumping from out the water during the day, number of which never went back. A large one-eight and a half feet in length-a splendid sample of the "man.eater," was hookad by Mrs. Dr. Parker, and with the a, sistance of the party was hauled ashore. If it had been regular woman.eater, the lady would have been in a bad predicament.
 While the family of w. c. Pelham, a gentleman living about two miles from Maysville, Ky, were at supper, well.dressed rather good looking man entered the room suddenly, and leveling a revolver at Mir. Pelham's head, demanded his money. On being told by MT. Pelham that he had none, he insisted that there was money in the house, and he was determined to have it. Patham offered to go for it, hoping to get his pistol which was in another room; but the stranger refused to allow him to leave the apartment, and sent ill his stead Mrs. Pelham, who returned with pecket-book containing a small amount of money. The man took it and hurriedly made his escape from the premises. Mir. Pelham and the officers of Maysville are on the trail of the robber.

THE neglect of Capt. Mares to issue lime-iuice rations to the sledge parties of the arctic expedition is still the theme of much discussion in the English news. papers. The Sanitary Record approves the opinion of Surgeon Colan, that if anything should have been omitted, the rum and not the llme-juice should have been left behind. Capt. Mares admits that in future case of the kind he would " certainly 80 modify the arrange ments as to admit of sending lime,juice" l" Punch takes hand Tn the controversy, with the suggestion that an agreeable way to modify the arrangements " would be to send both the rum and the lime-juice, with little sugar.
