Terrible Trip Across the ocean.
NEW YORK, October 4'-The hatche
on the steamer City of Chester, that
came into port to-day were opened
this evening to allow the unloading Of
freight. When the men descended in
to the hold they were amazed at find
ing man lying on pile of freight
boxes in a famished condition. He
had been there the entire voyage,
across the sea. the hold having been
undisturbed all that time. He was
brought to the deck and restoratives
and food administered. He said his
name was James D0nnelly, from Scot
land, twenty-three years old. lie se-
creted himself in the hold with the
purpose of coming to this country,
having no money. Eleven days the
trip lasted, and DOnnelly starved in
darkness. He had no food, aud, driv-
en- to desperation by thirst, drank his
own urine. He was sent to the hos
pital.

Soldiers Reunion at-Newt0m Fails.
The survivors of the Sixth Ohio
Cavalry and portion Of the Nine
teenth Veteran Infantry, held their
annual reunion at Newton Falls, Tues
day, Oct. 1. The Enquirer correspon-
dent says OF it:
1t was by far the largest conc0urse
of people eyer seen in that village, the
number IN attendance being not short
of three thousand. Most Of them
were attracted thither by the presence
of General Frank Sigel, veteran COM
mander of the corps to which these
regiments belonged. The dwellings
and business houses of the village were
chsrmingly decorated for the occasion
in eyergreens, while fags and banners
were everywhere conspicuous. Sew
eral arches were placed over the street
one in particular bearing the legend,
"We Fight Nit Sigel," attracting much
attention. The procession was formed
at IL a. m, and was perhaps half
mile long. Conspicuous among its
features were General Frank Sigel and
portion Of his staff, Barney Allen,
soldier of 1872, aud horse, "Old Put"
which carried the gallant commander
OF the Sixth Cavalry, Colonel Stead
man, throughout the war. Exercises
were held in the fair grounds, and
were very interesting. DIR. Resener,
of Cleveland, President of the Asso-
citation, aud formerly Brigade Surgeon
called the vast sssemblage to order,
and introduced Elder Winans, Of Gar
rettsville, an 1872 veteran, who made
brief and appropriate prayer. Ad-
dresses of welcome to the heroes,
made by Rev. ID. p. Thayer, on behalf
of the citizens, and response for the
soldiers by f. f. Steadman, of Ran
dOlpii, son of the late gallant Colonel
of the Sixth. were both peculiarly fit
ting and prOmOtiye of G0rdiality.
Gen. Sigel was next introduced aud
made the most interesting speech of
the day. He spoke of various regi-
ments of his corps, many members of
| whom were before him of the noble

distinguished Generals and leaders Of
the army that this State furnished
during the rebellion reGiting various
engagements in which his corps was
engaged, and paid high compliment
to General Grant 40 colder, also to
Sherman and Mcclellan. The Gener-
ais speech was q manly, patriotic
effort, especially characteristic of him
and was listened to with the closest
attention. After bounteOus banquet
prepared by the generous hearted Ia
dies OF Newton, the veterans dispersed
TO their several homes.

Heavy Judgment Against y Sank.
ST. LOUIS, October 4.-The suit of
the Bank of Commerce, of New York,
against the National Bank of the State
of Missouri, to recover 100000, which
has been before the United States Cir.
cult Court several days, was decided
this afternoon by Judge Dillon i'm
structing the jury TO find for the plain
tiff in the sum of $445,5S2. The de-
Tense set up fraud in the transaction /;
also that the original loan was made
in violation of the National Bank Law,
which the Court decided was not es-
tablished, and instructed the jury as
above. The original loan by the Bank
of Commerce was 81, 100000, $500, 900
of which was returned, leaving bal
ance of 100000 due when the State
Bank suspended. This sum, 1t is said
will nearly cover the assets of the
State Bank, and leave the depositors

The Sick Man.

A good many inquiries have been
made as to the origin of the term sick
man." as applied to Turkey. So far as
| know, says our Washington corre-
spondent, they have not been answered,
and the following, which fell across
by accident, will furnish the informa-
ton: The term originated with the
Emperor Nicholas of Russia. He is
represented to have said to Sir George
Seymour, the British Charge d Af-
faires, in a conversation at st. Peters
burg on January IA, 1874: "We have
on our hands n sick man, a very sick
man. 1t would be a great misfortune,
l tell you frankly, if one of these days
he should happen TO die before the
necessary arrangements were all made.
But this is not the time to speak to you
of that" The conversation was then
broken off, but was renewed on the 14th
of the same month, when the Emperor
observed: Turkey, in the condition
in which have described, has by de-
grees fallen in such state of decrepi-
tude that, as told you the other night,
eager as we all are for the prolonged
existence of the man (and l am as de-
SlIOuS do YOU ttlll III bl-C
of his life l beg you to believe) he may
suddenly die, upon our hands" Again,
at another interview, on the 21st: "
think your Government does not well
understand my object. | am not so
eager to determine what shall be done
when the sick man dies as am to de-
termine what shall not be done upon
that event taking place. l Irepeat to
you that the sick man is dying, and we
can never allow such an event to take
us by surprise. We must come to some
understanding. The minutes of Sey-
mour's conversation with the Emperor
having been laid before Parliament by
the English Ministry in the course el
the debates that Immediately preceded
the declaration of war against Russid,
the expressive appellation, " Sick Man
of the East" was caught up and circu-
lated by the press till it has become an
established national sobriquet.-PbilG-

Death of a Robber King"

The Hungarian papers announce the
death, in the prison of Szamos-Uivar,
of the celebrated bandit, Rosza Sander,
known in Hungary as the "robber
King" He was born at Szeiedin in
1918, and both his father and grand
father were robbers by profession. His
achievements, however, soon eclipsed
those of his family, and he was admired
as much as he was feared. The reck-
less courage with which he attacked the
police, and even military escorts, on
the high road in broad daylight, his
generosity toward the poor, and his gal
lantrv toward women made him a sort
of national hero. Some thirty years
ago few people of the wealthier classes
ventured to travel in Hungary without
paying him tribute. His bands were
well armed and organized, and the
SzegOny legenVeb (pOor fellow, as the
bandits were called in those days, found
many sympathizers and accomplices
among the peasantry. He was first i'm
prisoned in 1886, but escaped in the
following year by the assistance of his
mistress, peasant woman named Kati,
whose husband he had killed by blow
ing his brains out with pistol. Dur
ing the revolution of 1848, Rosza San
dor was pardoned by Kossuth, and he
then organized free corps which did
good service against the Government
troops. After the suppression of the
rising, Sandor resumed his former ca
reer. He did not again fall into the
hands of the authorities until 1856,
when he was betrayed by one of his
companions, whom he shot as the sol
diers were advancing to capture him.
After trial which lasted three years,
Sander was sentenced to be hanged;
but the sentence was commuted to inn
prisonment for life. He remained eight
years in the fortress of Kufstein, and
was then set at liberty in virtue of a
general amnesty. But he soon resumed
his old pursuits. In 1868 he attacked,
with some of his companions, railway
train at Felegyhaza. The Government
sent a body of troops, under Count
Gedeon Raday, to capture him; and
four years later he was again brought
before the criminal tribunal, together
with number of his accomplices,
among whom were several magistrates
and high civic functionaries. He was
again sentenced to death, and the sem
tence was again commuted to imprison-
ment for life. The prison to which he
was then sent is the one in which he
died.-PGI Mall Gazette.
