created great consternation in the
party, who at srst thought the wsiter
was drunk OF crazy. Later, when
they were assured that it WAC fact,
and that John Wilkes Booth was &C
cused of the crime, John F. Coyle,
with blanched features and trem-
bling lips, said: Gentlemen! This
very day 1 met JOHN Wilkes Booth
on the market space. He was
on bay mare, and rode up to me
and handed me a sealed envelope,
saying, as he did so: '' If you hear of
me within twenty-four hours, publish
this; if you do not hear of me with
in that time, destroy this" and rode
away. "Here is the package con-
tinued Mr.. Coyle, producing letter
envelope from his pocket; "what
shall l do with it = destroy it at
once" said Mr. Randall. "They will
hang anybody who knows anything
about the assassination, no matter
how innocently they may have come
by their knowledge; don't open it
burn it just as it isI "Yes," said
Mr.. Morrissey, burn it up, for Gods
sake, at once" The doors were care
fully locked A fire was made in the
CRATE, and the mysterious envelope
and its contents were carefully burn
ed. Even the ashes were carefully
collected and placed in a dish; water
was poured upon them, and the two
were mixed into paste, which was
afterward put into the fire and burned
again.

Improvements of Washington City

1t is remarkable that the Demo-
cratic House of Representatives have
found sufficient time, outside of in
vestigation, to look carefully after
the material interests of the great
Capital city Of the nation While
the city has been very much improv-
ed within the past few years, and its
streets and avenues transformed from
series of mud puddles into beauti-
full drives, bordered with trees, SO as
to give it the name of ga forest city,
yet the burden of taxation has been
purely local, and the general govern
ment has borne no just part of it,
though the Government buildings
and grounds are more than one-half
of the property.
Congress has now come forward
and assumed the interest on one-half
of the District of Columbia, amount
ing to about $24,OO0,000, which is
virtually taking off one-half of the
debt itself. This is but right, for
Washington belongs not to the Dis
trict of Columbia, nor to any one
section, but to the whole country,
and deserves the generous support
and fostering care of every American
patriot, SO that its advancement be
worthy the rapid strides of this great
and powerful republic.

A Human skeleton Inside Of a
Horse.

[From the Vrginia City Enterprise
A miner in the Black Hills, writing
to a friend in this city, tells of a hor-
rible reminder of the fearful snow
storms of last winter, and of the
perils of those who were caught out
and lost their way on the plains. He
says that recently, while he and two
others were crossing the country,
they came upon the skeleton of a
horse, within which was the skeleton
of man, with the grinning skull
looking out at them from between
the ribs of the animal, like a pris
oner peering through the bars of his
cell. The two skeletons told the
whole story. The man had killed his
horse, cut him open, and crawled in
side of him, thinking to thus escape
perishing of cold, but the flesh of the
animal froze solid, and the man was
as much prisoner as if he had been
shut in by walls of iron. The wolves
and carrion birds had stripped the
greater part of the flesh from both
skeletons. The miner concludes his
description by saying: 1T was sight
l shall never forget. lean see it now
whenever l close my eyes,"

In the search for the body of young
Devins, which was taken from the
grave Just before that Of John Scott
Harrison was, Detective Snelbaker,
of Cincinnati, visited the Miami Med
ical College of Cincinnati. He found
in the cellar of that institution buried
the body of a young woman.
The janitor told him that about O
month previous body-snatcher, who
went by the name of Gabrielle, had
come to him and said that DIR. Glen
DENIM had given him permission to
use the cellar of tbs college to store
''stiffs" in and to prepare them for
shipment to Ann Arbor, where they
would be put into pickle for the use
of the students of the medical col
leges there next winter.
The detective visited Ann Arbor,
and a special dispatch to the Enqui'
rer says: "There, ranged along the
side of the walls, were three mon
strous watts containing a large num-
ber of dead bodies floating in brine
Piled high above these were a mum

open and rified of their precious dead
while upon a rough table in the cen
ter of the room was mixture of red
paint and nitrate of silver used fol
injecting the veins. A paint-mill on
a table at hand showed that large
quantities of this mixture were pre-
pared and used, and scattered around
the room promiscuously were empty
boxes and barrels, and trunks and
casks, in which the bodies had been
shipped hither from Cincinnati and
other points.
