WE acknowledge a pleasant call this week
from our jovial friend and correspondent,
Jack Mccoy. The trials and privations of
life on the frontier, of Indian warfare and
the tickle and uncertain changes of a miners
life, together with the lapse of time have
c~onspired to give a slight silver tinge to his
locks, yet he is fresh and rosy as youth, and
good tor many more years of service and
adventure. We learned from him much
that is valuable respecting the agricultural
resources of that region of country lying
along the base of the mountains between
the Missouri river and the Black Hills, every
mile OF which he has traversed, and to-
whom every stream and snow-lined peak is
familiar, which we will give to our readers
from time to time as the different sections
come into notice.

MEssRs. Stafford, Cooney, Mcintosh, Ack-
royd and Mccoy came up last Saturday,
with Richard Marks, a highly esteemed
miner OF Trout creek, who is suffering seri-
ously from mental arrangement. A pre-
llminary examination was held, and the un-
fortunate man was taken in charge by Sher-
lit Fleming, who started with him on Sum
day for the Warm Springs Insane Asylum,
III Deer Lodge county. Mr.. Marks had an
attack of the same nature about two years
ago, but after a few months careful treat
ment became all right. On that occasion he
was very violent, and was unavoidably
abused in being taken, he being a very pow
erful man. This time, however, he has
shown no signs of violence towards his
friends. His arrangement is thought to
have been fastened by the late misfortune
to the Trout creek drain, in which he IS in
terested.

The Flyers Sisters Combination.

The Opera house was packed in every part
last night-a most fattering compliment to
the charming Hyers sisters and their mimi
table combination. 1t was the largest and
most sympathetic audience which had as
sembltd within the walls Of this house for
many day. It was house such as only
Barrett, a Kellogg or-the Hyers sisters could
draw. "Urlina," rightly termed an opera
bouffe extravaganza, it would be difficult to
describe within reasonable space. The
libretto partook entirely of extravaganza
characteristics, as do many of the instances,
but there is sufficient good, really good music
to dignity the production with the name
of opera. The whole work is novel, spark
ling, suggestive of the finest classical opera
gems, full of broad humor and rich in well
turned puns and plays on words. OF the
d,daadtas personoe it is only necessary to say
that each sustained the role allotted with the
highest credit. Miss Madah Hyers, as Ur-
lima, had many opportunities to show her ex-
qulsltely trained and marvelously liquid
voice to its utmost advantage-there are
notes in purity of tone, fuliness and strength
and peculiar sweetness, rarely met with in
the finest mezzo-sopranos on the boards.
The Jaunty, piquant, saucy Miss Louise
Flyers as the Prince, was more winsome than
ever. Miss Grace Overall is an acquisition
to the company and made an efficient Ko-
kolah. Willie Lyle created a fund of amuse-
ment as Nubiana, but Billy Kersands was
just tremendous in his various impersona-
tions and excited the immense audience to
screams of laughter-as an Ir1shman he was
inimitable, as a Chinee positively wonderful.
1t should be stated that Billy Kersands is a
colored gentleman. Mr.. Wallace King (the
Kings Jester) has few equals ON the boards
as first tenor, with a pure and sympathetic
voice, full of music and expression. During
the performance, the celebrated quar'ette
Miss M. Hyers, Miss L. Hyers, Messrs. King
and j. w. Luca, sang several numbers.
They form the finest colored quartette upon
the stage, and their efforts were received
with immense applause. The entertainment,
which will be repeated tonight, gave more
fun, excited moro laughter, impaired more
varied and pleasurable enjoyment, and was
awarded more applause than any other en-
tertainment during the season.

have seen letter from Ems, which
gives this description of the ex-Empress: I:
Il have just seen the ex-Empress at Ems.
1t is hard to understand how she could
have selected these springs. The beauti-
ful village Of Ems is, as it were, the flu
neral monument of the Bonaparte dynas-
ty. She is accompanied by the Duchess
de Mouchy ard Marquis de Piennes. She
is clad in deep mourning. Hasard has
cruel ironies. In German spas each
house has its sign The home of the ex-
Empress bears over its door l. Elysee-
The same name of the palace where the
future Emperor wooed the future En-
press. When she reached Ems and came
out of the railway station the throng,
which contained people of all nations,
spontaneously took off their hats. do
not believe the Empress was ever saluted
with greater Difference and deeper SYM
pathy. Time, cares, sorrows, and exile
have done their work. Years ago saw
her on the beach at Trouviile with one of
those long canes which she had put in
fashion and which gave to the fine ladies
OF those days so fast' look. She still
carries cane, but It's not the light bam-
boo of old times; she now carries stout
walkingstick, mans walking-st on
which she leans as she walks along. T
could not, when I saw her, help thinking
of the broken, violence-scarred walls Of
the Tuileries majestic though in ruins.
The day the Countess de Pierrefonds Gas
the ex-Empress now styles herself)
reached Ems Prince George of Prussia
called on her. He repeated his visit the
next day: and during her whole stay at
Ems he was most attentive to her. He
took care that she should have at Ems
something like her old grandeur. He
made the authorities and public function
aries show her thousand courtesies.
The postmaster ordered letter-cari
to attend to her alone, and to carry her
all letters for her the instant the mails
were opened. The telegraph master did
the same thing. The visitors, seeing
these hcnors paid her, became still more
deferential. Whenever she walked pre-
cedence was given her and she seemed
very much touched by this courtesy. I
saw again upon her lips the enchanting
smile of happy davs.'

The Decice of the KeoEuE Body S2utcher

Keokuk Special to Chicago Tribune.1
Sensations in connection with the bodv-
snatching case at Beacon follow one another
in rapid succession. The last one came to
the surface to-day, being nothing more or less
than small pox scare in the interest of
Mackey. Yesterday morning g. P. Gone, of
Oskalooso, whom Mackey has engaged to de-
fend him, arrived in this city. He tried to
prevail on the sheriff, who had come after
the prisoner, to leave him here few days,
as it was feared he would be lynched if taken
back now. Failing in this, he held a
lengthy interview with Mackey, spending an
hour or more in the cell with him. In the
afternoon Mackey was taken ill. In the
evening physician was called, who pro-
nounced it case of smallpox.
There was rattling among the dry
bones about the Jail, and Mackey
was hast'ed off home, and a guard placed
over him. To-day he succeeded in obtain
ing smallpox certificate, signed by three
physicians, and was by order of the board of
health removed to the pest house. The cir
cumstances connected with the case led the
city marshal to suspect that the pretended
small pox was ruse. So he went to work
to investigate the matter, and soon found
that. on Sunday, Cone, the attorney of
Mackey, had obtained preparation of some
Kind at one of our drug stores. The time
which he spent in the cell is supposed to
have been occupied in "whitewashing'' his
client with this preparation, in order to pro-
duce the skin eruption which was afterwards
pronounced small pox. The marshal has
other evidence which leaves no reason to
doubt that it was preconcerted plan on the
part of Cone and Mackey, originating with
the latter, to get up a small pox scare, IN
order to delay his removal to Oskaloosa,
where the excitement still runs SO high that
fears are entertained that Mackey would be
lynched if taken there now. The sheriff re-
turned home this evening, and Mackey will
be allowed to remain here for the present.
He is under strong guard.

Horace Greeley at Brook Farm.

one evening. when we were still in the
dining-room, after our tea, I was startled
by what, for moment, really thought
must be ghost, so unearthly seemed the
vision; and with dilated eyes and blanched
cheeks turned to Mr., wondering
if it were visible to him. His amused
smile reassured me, and he whispered,
"It is Horace Greedy" NY mind was
very mnch relieved, and l became able
to study the singular apparition before
me. His hair Was so light that it was
almost white; he wore a white hat; his
face was entirely colorless, even the eyes
not adding much to save it from its
ghostly hue. His coat was very light
drab, almost white, and his neither gar
ments the same. I so long protested
that his shoes matched the rest of his
dress that | cannot now clearly remem-
Der whether they were really black or not.
1t is impossible for me to describe the
effect he produced upon me, and it was
not until [ became acquainted with his
gentle and pleasing manner that could
entirely overcome this first impression.
| remember his reading to US,
when we were all assembled in the par
lor at the Aerie, some paper upon which
ne was desirous of receiving the criticism
OF our literary world. I am sorry to say
the remembrance of its subject has pass
ed from me, but have an indistinct idea
that it was something IN reference to our
own enterprise. The modssty of his
bearing, the difference with which he
listened to the remarks made, impressed
me strongly. he was not then poll
tician, but earnest in his ideas of pro-
gress; perhaps not always as practical as
common-sense persons would advise, but
true and selfish,

BLEW HIS HEAD OFF.
That Was the Game He Played to End all
Trouble.

Yesterday, Coroner Stein held a partial
inquest over the body of John Kaserter, who
is alleged to have committed suicide the day
before. Kaserter lived on farm three and
half miles from White Bear, on the Centre
vile road. For sometime, he and his wife
have disagreed, but after continued squab-
Die, they came to one point of agree
ment, that they would separate. After
coming 10 this arrangement, they disagreed
as to who would go from and who would stay
on the farm. It was finally settled that the
vile should remain with the seven children,
and the husband go. Tuesday, the Oldest
son came to st. Paul, the mother and an
other son visited Centreville, the other
children were scattered around about,
and the father was left at home.
The Oldest boy returned home Tuesday
night, went to bed, and on getting up Tues
day morning, found his father dead in bed.
One whole side of his face was shot off, and
a gun was found between his legs, one barrel
discharged. When the mother returned
from Centreville, yesterday morning, she was
confronted with the information that her
husband, according to agreement, had left.
The above is the condition of affairs as re-
lated by members of the family. The in
quest, as far as proceeded with, threw some
doubt upon the theory of suicide.
1t is believed that from the nature
of the wound, that self-inficted death
could not have been possible. The
surroundings of the body, as it was alleged
to have been found, we're removed, and all
connected with the theory of suicide had to
be judged solely on the evidence. To clear
up this and some other points connected
with the semi state of mystery, the inquest
was adjourned over until to-day.
