nj. Samuel Troll, Ills, Of this city.
says the Geneva Continent, has lust fin.
ished for the Khediveo Of Egypt certainly
the biggest, and finest, and, probably,
the handsomest musical box ever made.
Its beautiful ebony case Is Bullets shaped.
as large as full-sized sideboard, and
inlaid with zinc and brass-work, and
ornamented with bronze chasings and
plates. The interior Of this remarkable
box Is q perfect marvel Of ingenuity; il
includes all eimprovementsfo for select
ing tunes, patent moderator, ETC..
and is finished with flute. hute-basso,
drum-bells, and castanets. The reper-
toire, consists OF 1872 tunes supplied by
IL cylinders, which can be exchanged
at pleasure, each Of them being q inches
in diameter and 26 inches long. Not
withstanding its Brobdignagian dimen-
sions, like all Others Of its kind,
It performs automatically--when the
khedive desires to treat himself to
concert he needs only to touch spring,
and II his highness should grow weary
OF the monotony of his 1872 tunes, he
has but to communicate with the mgen-
ious and enterprising manager OF M.
Trolls establishment-Mr. Geo. Baker
who can speedily supply him with
the materials for few additional hun
dreds. To complete our description we
ought to mention that the price to be
paid for the box is 10000 francs. As
this peculiar Swiss work Of art will
leave Geneva in the course of few
days, we should advise those Of our
readers who may have time and oppor-
tunity not TO omit making visit to the
warehouse in the Rue Boulevard; they
may count on a courteous reception
from Mr.. Baker, who will be happy to
show them his big box, the result Of
eighteen months Of assiduous labor, and
Of whose successful completion his firm
may be justly proud.

A writer in the London Times de-
scribes the effect Of excessive intermar-
rage on the inhabitants Of Protes, q
little town in the province Of Santander,
Spain. Until Is or 10 years ago, the
village was quite shut on from the rest
Of the world. Its inhabitants, from
their ever recurring intermarriages,
had become quite race Of dwarfs.
On market days the priests might be
seen, with long black coats and high
black hats, riding to purchase the sim
pie provision for the weeks consump-
tion--men Of little intelligence and no
learning, sprung from the lowest ranks.
About 10 years ago the Galician labor
ers, or Gallegos, from the mines Of
Galicia, swarmed into the town for
lodgings, ETC., and since their colonial
ton the population has increased in
strength, stature, education, intellect,
and morality. Their intellects, also,
have improved II tellects which had
been stunted, dwarfed, and ruined by
their frequent intermarriages.

Last Thursday night j. Koehucke
and wife, who have been married but
three weeks, gave party at their house,
on the corner Of Bush and Fillmore
Streets. Among those present was the
father of Mrs. Koehucke, who came
from Oakland, bringing revolver with
him for the purpose Of purchasing car
tridges to fit it. At IL o'clock Mrs.
Koehucke picked up the weapon and
asked her father whether it was loaded.
He said it was not. She then In sport
pointed II at her husband, and snapped
It two or three times. A young man
named Otto A. Decker, one Of the guests,
then laughingly remarked to the lady
that he would take the weapon. She
said /" II you try it will shoot you,"
and pointed the weapon full cock ut
him. He advanced, when she pulled
the trigger, an explosion followed, and
Decker fell TO the floor, wounded in the
breast. The revolver had one cartridge
in it, which fact the father did not
know. The wounded man was taken
into room, where he stated to ex Chief
OF Police Cockrill and Officer Doran
that the shooting was purely accidental,
and that he did not hold Mrs. Koehucke
responsible. officer Doran, however,
placed the lady under arrest, and
charged her with having made en- as
sault with deadly weapon. The lady
was taken to the City Prison, where
she was in Mysteries nearly all night.
Yesterday she was released on filing q
bond Of $1,000. The wound which Mr..
Decker received is very serious one.

Picture to yourself struggling vii
lage, with MASSIVE church for its most
prominent object, embosomed amongst
hills. Rich pasture-meadows dotted
with grazing herds, cultivated fields,
and orchard-groves, spread around on
all sides; but the arabic land is bare
and the fruit-trees are stripped, for
autumn is far advanced and the winter
season approaching.
On the outskirts of the village and
bordering the rutty road which runs
through It there is large farm-yard,
with plenty Of poultry pecking about
and capacious out-buildings web stored
with corn. The farm house, being
raised on posts, Is open on what would
be the ground floor, where heavy
clumsy wagons, and instruments OF
agriculture which the British farmer
would consider very primitive, are visi-
Bile; mere, also, pair Of hardy horses
are stabbed. The dwelling-ro are
reached by an outside permanent lad
der which politeness might call stair
case.
At the foot of this ladder there is
standing q remarkably pretty girl,
whose hands, though evidently used to
harder work than playing the piano,
are small and shapely; the beauty OF
whose feet, well displayed below the
short skirt she wears, thick wooden
stockings and stout shoes can not con-
ceal- Her figure il supple and grace
full; her hair Is twined in two long,
thick, silken plaits which hang down
her back; she is looking On the ground
and twitching nervously 1t acoquettish
little apron.
Before her, rather close, there is .
young man, clean shaven as regards
the face, with the exception Of black
mustache, but wearing his hair long.
He Is dressed in . sheepskin capote. q
white kilt, leather leggings; skull
cap Is set jauntily on one side Of his
head, and he is leaning dejectedly on a
long staff which he grasps with both
hands.

ANOTHER OF TwERD's GAMRs-GoING TO

MILLIONS.
NEW York, June 81.
Secretary Of State Bigelow stated to a
Graphic reporter that while Tweed's state
ment was being considered, information
reached the attorney general which justl-
fed the belief that Tweed has In Europe
two million dollars, and was only waiting
to secure his discharge to rejoin his confed-
crates now in Europe to embark in large
street way speculation in Madrid. This in
telligence, whether true or false,
was in such conformity with everything
that has happened from the day Tweed es-
capped to the present hour, that 1t justifes
the caution and circumspection in the final
decision manifested by the attorney gen.

fatal to his character as public officer.

SAN FRANCISCO, June 81.
Walla Walla dispatches state that more
persons have been killed than named in
dispatches, and the trouble is worse than
reported. The difficulty did not originate
about horse trade but was a regular out
break. Winnemucca and his band are en-
camped near Cow creek. They have re-
fused to return to their reservation, saying
they will fight first. The Indians at Can
yon city are also threatening an outbreak.
