slnation was consequently executed by
one OF the party, was openly posted in
the halls of university on the day
after he was shot.
1t is believed here the Nihilists are
interested in spreading the report,
concerning the plague. 1t is said thar
two of Professor Bodkins' assistant,
are leading the Nihilists. The da,

A GeniaI Father.ln-IaW.

Francois Grilhon, well-to-do far
mer of Barrie, commune in the south
of France, quarrcled with his son-in-
law about the division of some prop
erty, and, believing himself uniustly
dealt with, resolved on vengeance.
Having first set fire to his son-in-
laws mill, the Oldham went home, and
after arming himself with a double
barreled gun set fire to his own house.
While the buildings were in flames he
threw a quantity of money into the
fire, and walked up and down with his
gun cooked to prevent anybody trying
to put out the flames. A large
crowd gathered round, but nobody
ventured to interfere. As soon as the
house was burned to the ground he
took off his hat and coat, and, placing
the muzzle of the gun in his mouth
and his foot on the trigger, blew out
his own brains.

the Presbyterian church, at East
Lake George, was exhibiting a
revolver to his wife last night, when it

thought fatal.

An historical heirloom, the silver.
mounted ebony distaf' of Queen Marie
Antoinette, which figured at the late
Paris Exhibition, has been handed
back to its owners, the imperial family
Of Austria. Quite an interesting
story is connected with this relic OF
the past. II is the same distaff with
which the unfortunate queen boguiled
the long hours Of her captivity, and
after her execution it was given as a
momento to one of tho ladies in at.
tendance. It thence passed into the
family of Brassy-Raincin, the last
representative of which, Madame la
Douairiere dc Raincin, has Just died.
The spindle is Of ivory, and the hemp
still on it is that from which the un-
happy queen spun during the last days
of her life. By the deceaso of Madame
de Raincin, the relic passes into the
hands Of an Hungarian lady, to whom
il was bequeathed by the late owner
who was aware of the religious respect
that lady entertained for the memory
Of Frances ill-iated queen.

New ALBANY, October 2S.-The advance
in leather is still upward, and the lye
large tanneries in this city have demand
for their entire product. The average ad.
vance in leather here, of all grades, since
August l, Is five cents per pound. There is
an almost equivalent advance in hides.
The shipments from this city have gone
largely to Russia.
WASHINGTON, October 2S.-A dispatch
from New York gives the following details
OF the immense shipments Of grain to that
port, chiefly for export. On Saturday
night there were on the canal, bound for
tide-water, $4,000 bushels Of wheat, ,105,.
900 bushels OF corn, 7S4 900 bushels OF bar.
ley. and 165,000 bushels OF oats and rye.
The rail and lake shipments for the four
weeks ending October Is, were as follows:
Wheat, II, $40, ,440 bushels; corn, $40, 1881
bushels; oats, 2,O1O,332 bushels; barley,
1857 7l2 bushels; rye, 575,04S bushels.
This is an increase compared with last
year Of 2,7S5,44S bushels in wheat, and
1,305, 1881 in corn. Most OF the grain ar
riving is Immediately sent to Europe, but
the demand from abroad is slackening, and
though large shipments are likely to con-
tinue for some time, no advance in prices
is anticipated by conservative operators in
NEW ALBANY, October 2s.-All the hog
slaughtering establishments around the
Falls OF the Ohio are making extensive ar
rangements for the killing season OF 1870
so. AtNew Albany Mcdonald & Co. will
pack from 5000 to 10000 head. and it is
probable Louisville parties will also pack
largely here. At JefIersonville, Guthrie &
Co. expect to kill $4,000, and Howard &
So will Kill syer9 thousand Sa All the the
the prospects are that, with the competi-
ton among buyers, good prices will be
maintained throughout the season. The
hog crop Of Southern Indiana is very
large, and there is an abundance OF corn to
put 1t in good condition for the market.

CHICAGO, October 2o.-The Tribunes
Keokuk special says: The trial of Bill
Young, for the murder Of Louis T. spen.
Ger and four children, closed in Kahalla,
Missouri, Saturday, with the result OF a
verdict Of not guilty. The elimination of
the case, however, came to-day. Circum-
stantial evidence was strong, but was
weakened by the fasco OF a detectives
evidence, although Young was acquitted.
Belief in his guilt was very decided
among the citizens, and they determined
to lynch him Sunday afternoon. Young
married Lydia Brogg OF Ohio, and on Mon.
day evening the couple arrived here be-
fore going TO Young's home in Iowa. AS
the train passed through Kahaka this
morning Young and his wife alighted, and
a mob Of from two hundred 10 three
hundred followed them on horseback
and in wagons, and surrounding his house
demanded his surrender. Young opened
fire on the mob and shots were exchanged
until he was wounded. Eight men then
forced their way into the house, took him
out and hanged him. Excitement there ID
intense and no further details received.
