One of the saddest deaths from
yellow fever next to Butler Ander
son, was that of Col. w. H. Walter,
OF Holly Springs, one of the truest,
noblest, most unselfish of human
beings. AS Chairman of the relief
committee, amid the shock of pesti-
lence and the wall of his dying
neighbors and friends, he stood no.
bly, to his post-giving comfort
here, succor there. and inspiring
hope everywhere. A correspondent
of the Courier-J says: eff
we could weep, we would weep. If
we could tell the woe and heartache
there would be tears, there would be
mourning, there would be all that
sorrow and distress could ask. But
the silence of the tomb pervades
our breaking hearts" Col. Walter
was known to many of our citizens,
who sincerely mourn his sad death.
His bereayed wife was niece of
Mrs. A. A. Lindsey of this vicinity.

A Presidents Muscle.

Few were aware of the physical
strength possessed by Mr.. Lincoln. In
muscular power he was one in thou.
sand. One morning while we were sit
ting on deck, he saw an axe in socket
on the bulwarks, and, taking it up,
held it at arms length at the extremity
of the helve between his thumb and
forefnger, continuing to hold it there
number of minutes. .he most pow.
erful sailors on board tried in vain to
initiate him. Mr.. Lincoln said he
could do this when he was eighteen
years OF age, and had never seen day
since when he could not. It occurred
to me, when reading the details of the
plot which terminated in the death of
the president, that his abduction, which
was at one time proposed by the con-
spirators, would have resulted very dis
astrously to those who should have the
temerity to undertake it. The plan
proposed was to waylay the president
at night during one Of his frequent
visits to the war department., where he
was in the habit Of going to read the
teleg-aphic dispatches during the time
OF important military movements, and
where he would often remain until a
late hour, returning alone through the
grounds of tho White house. A half
dozen men were to seize and carry him
of; but had they attempted it, they
would probably have found that they
had met their match, for he had the
strength Of q giant. Judge SWEET, Of
Chicago, who was an intimate friend of
his. says that he has seen him dash into
q crowd where two powerful men were
fighting, and taking each by the collar,
hold them out at arms length in the
most helpless and ridiculous position.

WIND AND RAIN IN NEW ENGLAND.
ALBANY, July 21.-At II q. IN. to-day
cyclone struck the northern part of the city,
known as North Albany, carrying destruct-
ion before it. The stables of the Waterviet
Horse Railroad company were unroofed,

miscellaneous manner, being broken, split
and twisted into thousands of peices and
being blown into the river. The damage
to houses in the vicinity was alarming, two
of them being blown down and unroofed.

escapes occurred. The only serious accident

BEACONSFIELD'S LONELINESS

DEASoANCT y lLOIN
None have everything in this world, and
Lord Beaconsfeld, in his hour of triumph,
finds himself even lonelier than his prede-
cessors. Melbourne and Palmerston, SO
far, at least, rs family ties are concerned.
For albeit the former was a widower with
but an only child, from his birth afflicted,
and the latter had none, Melbourne had q
devoted sister, who survived him, in Pal
merstons devoted wife and widow. Lord
Beaconsiield has now but one near relative
OF his name-a nephew. His
only sister, to whom in his latter
years the author of the "Curiosities of
Literature" was indebted for all that filial
devotion could do to tighten the burden of
falling powers, died many years ago, and in
these prosperous latter days the prime min
lister of England has doubtless often turned
with fond regret to the memory of his wife
whom he so loved, and delighted to honoy
in seeing her created Viscountess Beacons-
field. He is a lonely man, and as matters
stand, his earldom WILL like his wifes Wis
county become extinct. 1t is, however,
likely enough that the queen will offer to
extend the title of the uncle to the nephew,
and, although Peel refused all honors for
himself or his family, Lord Beaconsfield
may very likely view such an offer in as diff
ferent light to that of his whlom antagon-
list us he did the repeal of the corn laws.

MORMONs SAID TO DE FURNISHING THEM

THE HosTILEs.
SALT LAKE, July 21.--Secretary Schurz,
having been informed that the Mormons
were furnishing arms and ammunition to
the Indians in Idaho, wrote to an acquaint-
ance at Ogden to ascertain the truth. An
investigation revealed the fact that the
Mormon cooperative stores at Logan, Og-
den and other northern stations have been
supplying those articles to the Banhock In
dians, from Idaho. A report of the facts
has been sent to Washington.
MAIL COACH ATTACKED.
BISMARCK, d. t. July 2l.-The first mail
from Fort Keogh to Bismarck arrived yes
tcrday. The mail driver, who was soldier
and with Reno at the time of of the Custer
massacre was attacked at Cabin creek by
twelve Indians, who fired several shots
through the mail bags and shot the lock off
of one bag Of mail. The driver was furnish
ed an escort from Fort Keogh, but he drove
faster than the escort, hence the attack.
