"JosEPH" EscAPINa.-General How
ard has not yet been successful in
capturing Joseph aud his band. The
latest dispatches represent Howard's
command as at least eighty miles in
the rear. 1t appears that Joseph had
taken all the fast horses in his path,
aud was making remarkably good
time for the buffalo country along the
upper Yellowstone. He is not in so
great hurry, however, that be is
afraid to stop for rest and refreshment.
He0ce he has been soiournipg for a
day or 90 at a convenient station,
where be is helping himself to what
ever he requires for his horses. He
has to pass through the Yellowstone
National Park to escape eastward, and
as General Sherman, with small! es-
cort of soldiers is making tour of
the Park, be may intercept Joseph
or Joseph may intercept him. The
red men have lost heavily, but from
present appearances they are as much
beyond the reach of General Howard
rs the money placed in the Freedman
Bank is beyond the reach of the
depositors.

THE REPORTED RIOT AT TIL
WHITE SULPnUa.-Gen. Bradley T

GINA Regiment, telegraphs to the
Richmond (Va.) Dispatch as follows
10 regard to the reported riot at the
Greenbrier White Sulphur Springs:
ssThe night of the Lee ball Captain
Miller, Of Mathews Guard. directed
one man to report to him at the hotel
as an orderly to carry message from
Gov. Mathews to Gov. Hampton. The
man reported with his musket, and
stood waiting orders before the hotel.
Some dining room servants collected
and began to make noises and to abuse
him, and at last he struck one eighty
with bayonet. 1t was reported to
me that rot was imminent, and |
ordered the camp guard to sleep 10
the guard-tent. / relieved them, and
that is all the riot that took place. No
soldiers charged any negro mob, no de
tail OF guard Of any kind was ordered
down; and the only that gave color
to the story was the fact that . num-
Der Of negro servants were riotous
and disorderly, and | kept my guard

THE VIRGINIA ATTORNEY GENER.
Richmond State very
warmly recommends Major John w,
Daniel, of Lynchburg, for the place or
the State ticket made vacant by the
death Of Mr.. r. T. Daniel, and passes a
high eulogy upon the former gentle-

concentrations Of the State are cordially
indorsed by the Richmond Enquirer and

A LITTLE Too Much HUMBLE PIE.
In his late Vermont speech Post
master General Key, who had been a
Confederate colonel, spoke ot"the err.
ring Southern brethren" and said that
to-day "New England ideas prevail in
the South, so that all the people o:
the South are as free as you are" The
Philadelphia Record denies the asser-
ton in toto, aud says Mr.. Key since
he entered the cabinet, ''has never
missed an opportunity to express re-
pentance for the past, and promises to
be good for the future. Aud how he
likes to Aatter the North and how
delightfully."- 'umble he is He is the

The Mohet bell punch. Promises to
prove failure. Instead Of being a new
machine it is, We fear, only an infringe
ment of a patent which was taken out
some years age by Vincent Fountain, Of
New York. Had our wise legislators,
instead Of attempting to collect tax by
machinery, consulted the columns o
the Shenandoah HERALD, they woald
have found a plan proposed, which
would have accomplished the purpose
desired, without infringing on the pat
ent OF Mr.. Fountain or that of any 9TH
er person. 1t would have saved the
state the loss caused by attempting the
use of the bell punch and would have
secured handsome revenue at once. 1t
is simple and can be enforced without
difficulty or delay. May We not hope
that the next Legislature will learn
wisdom from the errors of the past?

HIS LAST SPEECH.

Judge E. G. Minor, Ijr.sJ. w Law.
son, and General JOSEF ! AZ Anderson
were appointed to waitsripon Nj. Daniel
and inform him Of his nomination, and
to request his presence before the Con.
ventiOn. Soon thereafter Mr.. Daniel
appeared before the Convention. He
never looked better. Me had the ap-
pearance Of being in frst-rate health,
and his voice was as full and sonorous
as it had ever been. Without any effort
at loud talking he was heard all over
the Theatre. Yet at that very time the
sickness was coming upon him which
was destined to bring his long and use
full life to sudden termination.
In his speech he said /: When I am
approached upon the streets, and such
questions are asked me as s'Who are
you for ?" ''Who are you going to sup
port?" and ''Who is going, to support
yous" my benevolence is circumscribed
like old Jack Falstafss and I say: sc cd
reward the man who rewards me-"
THE FATAL ILLNESS.
saturday after the Convention Mr..
Daniel, worn out with the excitement
and anxiety Of the Convention, went
back to his work Of Acknowledgement.
He found that the Auditor had pressing
need of his services in connection with
the Moaet-register litigation. A num-
Der of the registers had been put up in
this city. The Liquor-Dealers' Assoc
cistion had obtained an injunction from
Judge Hughes restraining their use. Mr..
Daniel had consultation with General
Fields and Major Frimsley as to what
course should be pursued. That was his
last official act. He walked about a
good deal that day in the sun, and be-
came sick, as he thought, with diarrhea.
Monday he went to bed,neyer to recov-
er. Throughout his illness he suffered
but little. He was in possession Of his
senses yesterday morning when his son
and daughter reached here from the
White Sulphur, but in the afternoon.
when his other daughter returned, home
he was delirious.

THE LAST CONVENTION.

Mr.. Daniel naturally felt some sslici-
tude as to the acton of the Convention
in connection with the Encouragement.
ship. He was little afraid that in the
making of combinations he would be
left out, particularly as his views in re-
spect to the maintenance of the plixhted
faith Of the State were well known, aud
were by no means acceptable to Ger.
tain section Of the party. He therefore
watched the proceedings Of the Conyen-
ton with some anxiety. Those having
no immediate interest in the result were
at times aroused to the highest pitch oil
excitement by the occurrences there, and
it is presumabfe that he shared in the
emotions of The hour.
Even after the gubernator:al question
had been disposed Of, and Lieutenant
Governor chosen from the Southwest
thus leaving place on the ticket for an
eastern man, it looked as ifthere would
be some trouble for him. General Field
and Colonel Goodwin had been nomin-
ated against him, and it seemed that
they would receive considerable votes.

THE New ORLEANS MINsTRELs-
This standard and always welcome
troupe of MINISTRIES are billed for King $
Opera House in this city next week
Thursday, Aug. 9th. The State Regis
ter speaks as follows of their recent APP
pearance in Des Moines:
Haverleys New Orleans Minstrels
gave one of their fine entertainments at
the Opera House last evening. 1t was
a merry crowd. The audience was
kept in a continual roar of laughter by
the inimitable antics, the comic songs
and the funny jokes of the company
1t was not all comical Some of the
songs were really pathetic, and touched
the tender natures of those who listen
ed to them The singing was Of high
order, and the dancing not excelled
by any travelling troupe The people
went expecting to see and hear some
thing good, and they came away salts
fed. One feature Of this company we
cannot pass by unnoticed. 1t was en-
tirely free from the low ribaldry and
disgusting jests so common to enter
tainments of this class. Nothing was
said or done that could have been re-
pulsive to the most sensitive. 1t was
what might be properly termed first
class entertainment.

House BREAKERs.-Last Monday
afternoon, the house Of a Mr.. Bunker,
who lives in the northern part of the
city, was broken into while the occu-
pants were attending the circus. A fel-
low had been noticed prowling about
the house by one Of the neighbors
Gill-who, after a short time, went over
to the house and tried the door. He
could plainly hear the burglar on the
inside engaged in his work of plumber.
The door being locked, DIR. Gill went
around to one of the windows, and
again tried to obtain an entrance
While he was trying to open the win
dow, the burglar ran out of the back
door, and made off. He was discovered
by the Doctor, who drew his revolver
and shot at him. The fellow not being
stopped by this, the Doctor gave chase,
but was eluded, and soon returned
Nothing of any valve was taken, al
though some jewelry and clothing were
lying on the table.
Last Saturday night, the house of
Rev. w. B. Phelps was visited by bur-
glars, but they did not succeed in gain
ing admittance, having awakened some
of the family, who drove them off.
