The schooner General Miller, Capt.
May, belonging to the Alaska CONNER
ciaI Company, sailed from San Francisco
Feb 16, for Alaska. A day or two ago
the schooner was discovered bottom up
few miles up the coast. All on board
are undoubtedly lost. The vessel and
cargo are valued at $4,000.
wAbout two inches Of snow fell at Buff
falo, n. y, Saturday night and Sunday,
anu III was still showing at $50 p. IN.
Eight inches of snow fell yesterday at
Watertown, N. Y. The storm extended
over other portions of New York, and
portions of New England, Chic and
Pennsylvania. A heavy wind storm
prevailed in this latitude.
The United States sloop of war Wyo-
ming, which left New York for Hayre
on the 10th instant with goods for the
Paris Exposition, has returned leaking.
The leak was discovered 800 miles out.
The vessel will probably go on the dry
dock for repairs, which can be completed
in two days. The captain has gone to
Washington for instructions.
In Brooklyn, N. Y, Saturday afternoon
the cashier of thePlanetMills was knock
ed down and robbed of So 800. The CASH
ier was on his way from the bank to the
mills, when his four assailants set upon
him. They had horse and wagon at
hand, and, and drove off at break-neck
pace, followed by a policeman and a
crowd of excited citizens. The robbers,
however, escaped.
In the case of Hunter, accused of the
Armstrong murder in Camden, N. j..
Crahame's statement has been further
confirmed. Mrs. Spellise, the lady from
whom the felt hat was purchased, was
taken to Camden and identified Hunter
The lady attendant in the store identified
Graham as being with Hunter at the
time. The prosecution say they have
now the chain of evidence complete.
President Scott testified before the leg
islative committee at Philadelphia, Sat
urday, that the losses OF property by the
company in the July riots amounted to
S2,OOO,0O0, while the entire loss, includ-
ing merchandise, &C., is estimated at
$5,OO0,000. He said there had always
been trouble with the PIttsburg people,
who saw there is a discrimination in
freights against them. He denied that
he made a requisition for troops. The
trouble, he thought i originated from dis
contened men all over the country, and
not on railroads alone.
Sister Electa, the head of the "Child-
ren's Home," Catholic, ,)at Harrison, N.
Y, died Friday, after few weeks ILL
ness. She was a woman of singular
beauty, and endowed with rare business
qualities. Her "family" numbered about
100 little orphans, who will miss her con-
stant and loving attentions. Several Sis
ters from New York and elsewhere went
up to the home on being apprised of the
sad event. Sister Electa was quite a
young woman, and it is feared her early
decease was fastened by the great strain
upon her slender system made necessary
by the increasing responsibilities which
deyolved upon her.

Mob LAW.
Lynchfng of John Wallace. the
West Virginia Murderer.

WHEELING, w. Va, March 24.-This
morning at 1.25 o'clock a party of
about twenty-five men, all disguised.
demanded admittance to the Blacks
Hotel, Littleton, near this city, where
John Wallace and George Wallace,
alias Baker, were In custody for the
triple murder on the 9th inst. As the
masked men went up stairs they
knocked the lamp chimney of the
lamp and blew out the light, and kept
up continual shooting and shouting,
and on arrival at the room where the
prisoners were they forcibly entered.
John Wallace jumped behind one Of
the guards for protection, and cried
out, cob, my God, save mel" They
told Baker TO keep his seat, and then
some OF the mob knocked John Wal
lace and the guard down, and put a
rope around Wallace's neck, trampled
the guard under foot, and told Wallace
that Miss Church wanted to see him,
and started, dragging him down stairs
head foremost out of the house on to
the railroad, with the rope around his
neck. The mob started up the rail-
road, with him. He was found a mile
and half east of Barton at 6.15 a. M,
dead, hung with rope to the limb OH
an apple tree, the rope passing under
his chin aud behind the ears. His
feet were three feet from the ground.

COMPANY c. DUPONT GUARDS ATTEND
DIVINE SERVICE

| bEhNlOE.
| Yesterday upon the invitation of Rev.
| Lafayette Marks, company q, DUPONT
| Guards, attended Hanover Church, for
the purpose of hearing a sermon which
had been prepared for them.
The weather was threatening but not
wlthstanding that fact, there were thirty
nve members of the company present.
They appeared in full dress uniform,
| the commissioned officers wearing their
| side arms.
The text selected for the discourse was
the 2nd chapter of Paul's second letter
to Timothy-3d, 4th and 9th verses:
"Thou therefore endure hardness, as a
good soldier of Jesus Christ"
"No man that warreth entangleth
| himself with the affairs of this life; that
| he may please him who hath chosen him
to be a soldier"
"And If he also strive for masteries,
pet Is he not crowned, except he strive
lawfully"
In writing to the ministers and to the
people, the Apostle was always in
fiuenced by his surroundings, and he
| always drew his observations frem those
whom he came in contact with.
His mind was like unto his master, a
perfect picture gallery This letter from
Paul to Timothy, young man that had
just entered the ministry, was for the
purpose of telling him how TO behave IN
the house of God, and Paul being an old
warrior in the service of the Lord and
Master, was perfectly competent, to in
struct new recruit. In that time il was
a time of war, and often had Paul seen
| armies of soldiers marching through the
streets of different cities where he had
been; every day the streets of Jeruselam
echoed to the tramp of marching men,
He sometimes, hkens christian unto a
racer, but at the same time he exhorts us
to run in patience, looking unto Jesus
for our final reward. A regiment of
soldiers is a body of men set apart for the
purpose of doing certain work, and in
doing that work the soldier of that regi-
ment must necessarily, and for time,
loose portion of his other work. A
soldier when he enlists must perforce
loose part of his individuality, he is
subject to the commands of his superior
officers, and just so Is it with us, we are
subject to the commands of our great
captain, Jesus Christ Timothy could
not have been good soldier, and at the
same time be farmer, blacksmith, or
engage IN any other business. He had
enlisted in the army of the Lord, and he
had to give up all other business for the
purpose of working in that army. And
so IL is with us, we cannot be Christian
and at the same time sinner, we must
either be one thing or the other.
In closing he adjured all those present
who had not enlisted in the Lords army
to do so at once and then stand firm in
the cause, and they would receive their
reward at the great day.

The commission of the new Minister
to Germany was made out to Bayard
Taylor. 1t should have been James
Bayard Taylor to be legal, for that was
the name he was christened by, and he
wrote himself down as James B. Taylor
until he was thirty years old. These
literary swells outgrow their Christian
names, and those their parents labeled
them with when they get into aristocra-
tic society, When the editor of the New
York Tribune first came to Washington
as a newspaper correspondent he was
known as "Jake" Reid, and on the cata-
logue of the Miami University, when he
graduated, he stood as "Jacob w. Reid )"
Now he is Whitelaw Reid. The recent
Minister to England outgrew his name.
he appears on the catalogue of Yale
College, when he was student, as Mum

he appears as Edwards Pierrepont.

Meeting of City Council.

On Saturday afternoon, City Council
proceeded in Seals large hack, to the
terminus of Christiana Avenue, and held
a special meeting, Mr.. Hazlett presiding.
The meeting was called for the purpose
of devising some means whereby to stop
the overflow of water into the marshes,
in that vicinity. 1t was discovered that
the water did not come from any breaks
within the city limits, but came from a
break IN the river bank below the mouth
of the creek. Without taking any def
mite action, the Council adjourned, and
the matter was left in the hands of the
Street Committee.
