,ram of the Acknowledgement to United

gram OF the Acknowledgement to United
States Marshal Wharton, ut New Orleans,
notifying him not to interfere with the
rights of the State Courts, WAS sent last
night, after consultation with the Presi-
dent. AS no action had been taken in
the case of the Returning Board before
the United States Courts, the President
and Acknowledgement had no hesitation
IN deciding that there was no occasion
for interfering on the part of any Federal
official. Anderson, Acting Collector, is
represented here as having summoned
the marines from the revenue-cutter to
protect his person and other members
OF the board. 1t Is represented here
that the returning board members will
use every possible influence to obtain
the interference of the United States
courts, SO as to remove them from the
jurisdiction of the state courts. In the
event that Judge Billings does not favor
their petition, as now seems probable,
they will then have recourse to Circuit
Judge Wood.

Vassar, on parting wept out Of existence
$3.50 worth of laundry-wolk and a
complexion and a quarter, and vowed
to write each other long letters crossed
five times and not quarrel so long as
they should live. Two weeks ago they
both fell in love with the same man,
and now.

occasion Stephens, Of Georgia, will make

New Ork Tribune

PROF. WHEWEIL says every failure
is step to success; every detection of
what Is false directs towards what is
true; every trial exhausts some tempt
ing form of error. Not only SO; but
scarcely any attempt is entirely q
failure; scarcely any theory, the result
of steady thought, is altogether false;
no tempting form is without some laten}
charm derived from truth"

DURING the past six months the
thoughtful kindness Of the public has
supplied Bellevue, Charity, and other
hospitals with no less than 5000 news
papers and magazines. This has been
done through the medium of the
newspaper boxes" placed in various
parts of the city. The box at st. Paul's
Church received the largest number
1915 papers; 1857 were deposited in
the box at the Grand Central Depot,
and 1887 in the one in front of the
New York Hotel. These boxes are
emptied every day, and the papers are
much valued by the hospital patients.

\ telegram from Cambridge, Ohio,
to a Western paper tells TINS story:
This city was greatly surprised by
the presence of William ]. Raines,
whose absence Of nine years produced
the general belief that he was dead.
He lived at Henrysburg, Belmont
county, and had a wife and child. Be-
ing a carpenter, he left them in 1869
to work in the East. Shortly after ar
irving there his uncle employed bin
on nine months cruise to go to Cal
cutta. He sent his wife, 5000 aud in
formed her of this fact. She had one
other letter from him. Tn mid-ocean
he vessel wrecked off the coast of
Africa, and he, his uncle and four 9TH
er men landed on shore, but were soon
captured by the cannibals. They were
marched 600 miles to the interior, and
one kept by each Of the tribes as GU
riosities. lie was divested Of cloth
ing when on exhibition, and visitors
came hundreds Of miles to see him.
he was kept by the Kings authority,
aud was the pet Of the tribe. One
year ago he made his escape and found
his way to Capetown, and reached
San Francisco three weeks ago. lie
came 70 his frienils in Caldwell and

THE LEGEND OF EEL DO sADo.D


The word used above is now gener-
ally employed to indicate any locality
which is supposed to be particularly
rich, but it was originally applied to
an individual When the Spanards
first discovered Guayana and estab-
lished communications with the ma
tives, the latter soon become aware of
the ardent affections which their visi-.
tors entertained for gold. They rela-
ted to the newcomers the history of
a great chief who resided in the inte-
rior, on the banks of vast lake called
Parlme, who possessed palaces with
walls Of the precious metal, and who
every day po Sdered himself from head
to foot with cold dust. The magma
ton Of the adventurers was at once
fired, and they determined to visit the
Cresus. whom, in their language, they
called "El Dorado" the gilded man.
The tale was not wholly baseless, Us
some such mysterious parsonage did
exist, and daily performed toilette
somewhat resembling that described
in the native account But, instead
of using real gold dust for his decora-
ton, he employed a Substance, we'll
known to miners, called golden sand,
which is, in fact, only an ore Of iron
in minute particles, utterly valueIess,
bat which glitters like gold Many
attempts were fruitlessly made to pen
citrate to Edorado, and among others,
by Sir Walter Raleigh. At last, some
adventures reached one of the pal
aces, situated on the Couroupi, an af-
fluent of the Vary, but which turned
out to be nothing more than a natural
grotto, the wal Is of which were formed
OF micaceouS rocks. Mica Is one OF
the constituents of granite, and has
yellowish metallic glitter, which under
a strong light makes it resemble gold.
As for the famous lake Parime, some
foundation also existed for the legend,
as the region inhabited by the Indian
chief is situaAed on the alluvial lands
at the foot Of a mountain range called
Tumuc-Humuc, and every year, during
the rainy season, the greund is COW
cred by an inundation to an immense
extent, and the natives are able to
navigate the vast forests in their ca
noes.

l. S. Weller, Secretary.

An Austin young lady, in discus-
sion Of the marriage question, thus
expressed herself: ell, no, l don't
know as I'd marry for money alone,
but if a man had plenty of money, al
lied to a sweet disposition and mus
tache that curled at both ends, and
nice blue eyes, and a respectable pro.
feSsion, and his father was rich, and
his mother and sisters aristocratic.
and he wanted to marry me and would
promise to let me have my own way
in everything, aud to keep me liberal
ly supplied with coin, and have nice
furnished house, with big piano in
it, aud would give me two diamond
rings, and pay my dry goods, milli-
ners' and dressnakers' bills without
grumbling, and | really and truthful
ly loved him, / would not consider his
money any drawhock to the match"

returned from the scene of the
Tensas troubles last night after /
had telesraphed you. He gave the
troubles searching investigation
aud its result convinces him that
1t has been more sensational than
real He could find no evidence
that any negroes had been killed,
besides the one who WAS wounded
when Capt. Pc K Was kill d and
afterwards died. The greatest
number claimed by any one to have
been killed IL six.
The negroes Oh Monday passed
through Waterproof and were ex.
tremely insulting and threatening
in their conduct, and the people Of
the town had good reasons for be-
ing greatly alarmed. We do not
think that anything need be done
