4 Lost COLONY,

From the Nashville American.
The discovery of mound in North
Carolina, with a number of well pre-
served corrses of unknown nationality,
has revived hope of Sir Walter Raj
eigh, that some trace might yet be
found of the famous Roanoke Colony.
The remains and contents of the mound
are undergoing careful examination,
and if it is possible to decide that they
are the Roanoke colony-lost found
no doubt it will be done. The human
mind dislikes an insolvable mystery,
especially one three centuries old. 1t
was in 1887 that the famous lost colony,
the subject of so much search, specula-
ton and romance, landed at Roanoke,
and formed friendship with Manteo,
who was made a Christian, q feudal
baron, as the Lord of Roanoke, the
first gentleman IN America. 1t was
that colony that gave birth to Virginia
Dare, the first child born of English
parents on United States sofia fe-
male, by the way, which would have
CuUltltl NOLliu W sOllC llSllto VI pIlOl-
ity if she had not been unfortunately
lost, without perpetuating herself in
posterity. 1t was three years, on ac-
count of war, Spanish armada and
home troubles, before ship with sup.
plies and the Governor of the colony,
Virginia Dare's grandfather, returned
to Roanoke. All that remained of the
colony, of Manteo and the friendly In
dians to tell OF its fate was the inscrip-
tion, "Croatan" on the bark of tree.
No search was made then. Afterwards
Raleigh sent five times to seek his
colonists, bnt no sign or trace of them
ever appeared. The Indians at later
day claimed to have adopted the col
onists and their physical character
istics gave stme color to the theory
of adoption and amalgamation. The
lost colony has been the theme Of
many story and of a great deal of
discussion, which the curious deliver
in the old and half forgotten will find
ottroot;vo

From the Cleveland Ledger.
A suit was tried before Justice Green
and jury of three men yesterday which
contains many curious elements. Re-
Gently the wife of n member of well
known firm of Water street bought, in
q considerable bill of household goods,
coffee pot, paying Sl.75. But neither
she nor her maid could make acceptable
coffee from the pot, and it was returned
to the dealer. He refused to receive it,
and the husband sued him. Messrs.
Adams and Rogers represented the de-
fendant, and the plaintiff mentioned his
own case. The manner of procedure
was unique, to say the least. The deal
er took the coffee pot and liberal sup
ply of coffee, sugar and cream, gaso-
line stove, and a coffee grinding mill
into the court room. The coffee was
ground in the presence of the jury, the
gasoline lit in the stove, water and
ground coffee were put Into the pot, and
the same was allowed to boil over the
gasoline blaze. Al length the concoc
ton was pronounced complete, and it
was properly mixed with sugar and
cream and passed to the jurors fnd the
justice. What iuryman could withstand
such sweet Establishments? They called
for more, and as there was plenty and
to spare their request was granted. At
length the three retired orconsultation,
and returning rendered a verdict for
the man who made the coffee.

Sensation in Amputatcd Limbs

The Virginia New Enterprise prints
communication from Mr.. j. o. Ed
ridge, which reads: "a gentleman call
ed my attention to an item in your pa
per regarding q lad whose arm had been
amputated, and what he suffered, and
the removing of the same, and its re-
suits. Fifteen years ago lost leg,
and it was closely packed in a casket,
causing me constant, terrible pain. A
good wife, unknown to me, sent faith
full servant to arrange the amputated
limb comfortably in a new and larger
cAsket. The moment the leg was hand
led I knew it, and the comfort began
then and has never ceased, and I could
tell the position precisely in which the
missing member was placed I am glad
to know my experience is verified; but
Just how to account for this let the wise
men tell. This is the first time any al
lusion was ever made to this matter by
myself, and 1 only allude to it now to
add my testimony to that of the little
lad, that missing members do in some
mysterious way convey to us the sense
of feeling. I am well known to many
in your community, and the peculiar
circumstances attending my loss, if you
desire, you can publish

The Reason why.

From the Burlington Hawkevc.
The reason Mr.. Baslinger wont speak
to any of the editors of the Ha,Ukeye
when he meets them is this: Last
Thursday morning he came into the
Office with a poem, beginning, "Oh,
softly the moonlight sleeps on the
Glove" and told us, as he carelessly
tossed it on the table, that it was "only
little he had just dashed off as he
was coming down this morning; hardly
worth fixing up; hadn't time to polish
it; if we wanted to take it as he threw
it, all right" We took it and published
it, and the next night, at the church
sociable. his wife met us and said,
"And, oh, wasn't that a sweet little po-
EN- Of Frederic's? And do you know
he worked on that from eight o'clock
Wednesday evening until half-past three
in the morning, and wouldn't let soul
of us come into the room, and then he
made the last copy of it in his notebook
at the breakfast table. Why do edi-
tors prefer lead-pencil copy to ink
Frederic said they did" And right
there stood Mr.. Baslinger all the time.
