The Brisk Career OF John O'Connor

John O'Connor, who became notorious
in connection with the last Legislature of
Ohio, was arrested recently on a United
States warrant, charged with forgery.
O'Connor was elected TO the last Legisla-
ture from the Soldiers Home. After the
fact regarding his career as house breaker,
ex-convict, and bounty jumper had been
made known, he was forced to vacate his
seat. He returned to the Home, and was
permitted to remain until the board of di-
rectors had taken action in his case. While
at the Home he had been acting as claim
agent, and being suspected of fraudulent
transactions, special detective was ap-
pointed to work up the case. It has dis
covered that his own pension was certified
by the ferges of q surgeons name, DR..
Leavitt, of Boston, the ostensible signer
denying that the signature was his. It is
believed that other transactions of O'Con-
nor as claim agent are also of fraudulent
character.
O'Connor received information that he
would be arrested on this charge, and left
the home two weeks ago and could not be
found. It was ascertained that he was
living on a retired street, and the detective
succeeded in making the arrest and placing
O'Connor in Jail.
Aulc Co5e le EeSoAOSu us d strung Oue
against him, and likely to give him ten
years in the Penitentiary. In converse
tion O'Connor denied the charge, but stated
that the great dffioulty of his position was
that the agent who procu4ed his pension
had since died. He is man not ovel
thirty, Of strong Irsih features, natural wit
and capacity, but Of little education.
His career has been the most remarka.
BILE known in this part of the country. He
entered the army at fourteen, and became
associated with gaug of thieves, and il
blowing opent safe received wounds tina
marked him for life and won for him th'
sob1iquet of "Three Fingered Jack.
Within the past ten years he has servet
three years in the State Penitentiary 70

: 60 the National Home all alleged forge
papers; received pensions from the govern
ment fox injuries contracted while connec
ted with gang Of thieves, and by mean
of alleged forged certificates; has represen
ted this State in the Legislature with al
, tendant honors for part of term, and ha
now fair prospect of returning to h
Penitentiary for still longer period.

A Long Horseback Ride.

Captain Salvi, says the London Sports

feat of riding from Bergamo, iu Lombar.
dy, to Naples, a distance of 900 kelometers,
OF about $50 English miles, in ten days,
on Leda, Sardinian mare, the property of
an Italian cavarly officer. The mare is
Sandman born aad bred, but her grandsire
was pure Arab. She stands little over
143 hands, and is said to be about seven
years old, gray, with an Arab froehead
and very plain hind quarters. The last
atage, from Casters to Naples, was ridden
not without the greatest difficulty, the GAL
liant little mare being distressed beyond
measure. On arriving within the precincts
of the city, with half an honr to spare, she
was unable to move an inch further, and
could not proceed to the cavalry barracks,
as had been arranged. She had to be put
up at the nearest stable, where she lay
down in a dead heat, trembling all over
and refusing food and water. Thanks,
to the cafe bestowed upon her, she was
comparatively all right again the following
day.

Scientific Americana
AS soon as wound is inflicted, get a
little stick-a knife or file handle will do
and commence to tap gently on the
wound. Do not stop ior the hurt, but con-
tinue until it bleeds freely and becomes
perfectly numb. When this points reach
ed, you are safe-alI that is necessary is to
protect it from dirt. Do not stop short of
bleeding and numbuess, and do not on any
account close the opening with plaster.
Nothing more than simple cerare on a
clean cloth is necessary. We have used
and seen this used on all kinds of simple
punctures for years, and never knew sin
gle instance of a wound becoming infamed
or sore after this treatment. Among other
cases: Among other cases: A coal rake
tooth going entirely through the foot, a
rusty darning needle through the foot, a
bad bite by sucking pig, several instan-
ces of file shanks through the hands, and

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, d. G. Nov. 25th, 1878.
As the winter season approaches
and the coming Of Congress draws
near, all things at the Capital begin
to get lively, the White House as well
as smaller and more smaller matters.
A detachment of cadets from Vir-
ginia Military Academy visited the
President the other day and were re-
viewed at the executive mansion by
Mr.. Hayes, General Sherman and
other military gentlemen. After the
review, which took place in front of
the White House, the cadets filed un-
der the portico and into the east room
where they were introduced to the
Pro snt who shook each one by the
ham, and made short speech.
Appreheusions has been felt by his
friends lest Alex. HI. Stephens should
not be able to occupy his seat in Con-
gress the coming session; but the vete-
ran statesman is already in this city
and settled in his old quarters at the
National Hotel. He appears in COM
paratively good health notwithstan-
ding the fatigue and anxiety through
which he passed during the late can
vass.

ever work any change in him. He

Death will doubtless find him precise

didn't throw half his hat full of brick
bats last winter and has them in re
serve fer the coming session. I'm
doubtedly we shall see lively times in
Congress this winter. More than one
strong man will fire his parting shot
More than one dieing shrek will b.
heard.
The people of the country will b.

ABOUT Lov1NG.-There is nothing SO

Horace Greely, when he was local ed

once in while say good thing, we never

may pay one hundred compliments, and
give him dozen puffs, and he takes it as
a tribute to his greatness, and never dreams
that it does him any good; but if we only
say something this man don't like to see
how quickly he gets mad and flares up
about it. Our evils are daily charged UP
to US; apparently we never get any credit
for what good we do" We know it is the
truth, for experience has taught us that.

REVEREND FATHER - Having heard
that you are about to leave Memphis for
a short time, to enjoy needed recreation,
We have called to pay our respects, ex-
press our good wishes, and at the same
time to present to you slight testimonial

should lean in his earthly pilgrimage; the
gold symbolizes that pure charity which
you have 30 many opportunities of exer-

when our citizens, in the midst of pesti.

ssourge, Notwithstanding your arduous
duties, we bow our heads in humble thanks
giving to the Almighty God for that pro-
lection, without which you would have
been numbered with the dead. II would
seem that your mission is not yet fulfilled;
that other labors are yet to be performed.
Take. ther, this staff, and although it may
occasionally revive some of the weary, dis
NAL recollections Of the plague, we trust
that you will accept it as an assurance Of
