THE HOOKING VALLEY.
Fears of Serious Trouble Among
the Coal Miners of jackson
County, O.-Military Stoned.

COLUMBUS, September THE sheriff
OF Jackson county reports to Governor
Foster that while affairs are quiet
among the mines at Coalton, that the
troops have recently been stoned while
on picket duty, and that there are fears
OF serious trouble in case the troops are
removed. At present the situation
at the Corning, Perry county
mines, is far from encouraging.
A special to the Erening Dispatch from
there, says: Yesterday band OF armed
miners visited one mine where colored
miners are employed, and sought to
make trouble. but were driven away
without hloodshed. The situation is
very critical, and serious trouble is
feared from the persistent efforts OF the
white miners to drive out those who
took the places OF the strikers.
DAYTON, O., September 5.-The latest
reports from Coalton, Jackson county,
says the account of the trouble there
are greatly exaggerated. There has
been no collision between the troops
and the miners, and the latter will sub
init to the proposition to return to work
at the basis OF seventy-tive cents for
September, and at the Hooking Valley
rates after this month.

The fears expressed in Saturday morn

unhappily, confirmed. Tue steamer,

DARING ROBBERY.
Kentucky Stage Coaches Stop
ped BY Highwaymen and the
Passengers Cleaned Out.

LOUISVILLE, September 5.-Persons
coming in from Cave City, on the l.. &
y. X. R., report that two stage coaches
which run between that town and Nam.
moth Cave, were stopped by highway
men last night and the passengers
robbed. The stage to the cave was first
attacked about four miles east of Cave
City, and the one passenger on board
rifed. The other coach coming the
other way was shortly aiterward
met by two men on horseback,
heavily armed, who ordered the
driver to stop. They then compelled
all the passengers to get out and stand
in line and ordered them at pistols point
to give up all their property. The trav-
elers were unable to resist successfully,
50 they had to shell out. The robbers
took possession of all their money, jew
elry and watches, aggregating in value
about 81 200. After the exploit they
made the victims take drink OF whisky
with them and rode off. The greatest
excitement prevails in the neighborhood
where the daring crime was committed,

Humboldt's Mistake,
London Telegraph.

LoHuOH leIeSIhpH.
"Great wits are sure to madness near
allied" and quaint anecdote, culled
from Humboldt's "Wanderjahre," aptly
demonstrates how readily even so keen
an observer as the great German travel
er may mistake q genius for lunatic
During one OF his many sojurns in Paris,
Humboldt, who took deep interest in
the mysteries OF mental alteration, con-
ceiyed desire 10 converse intimately
quested one OF his scientific friends, an
eminent mad doctor to give him the OPP
portunity of meeting one OF his more
remarkable patients. A few days later
he received an invitation from the
speciaist>in question to supper, and, on
his arrival at his friends house, found
two strange gentlemen awaiting him,
neither of whom was formally presented
to him by his Amphitryon. One was an
elderly gentlemen OF grave demeanor,
dressed in the height OF the prevailing
fashion, by no means laxative, and
manifestly devoted to the pleasures OF
the table. The other was compare
lively young man, extremely excitahle
in manner, with long, dishevelled hair,
iIl.made clothes, and so exuberantly
volube that he all but monopolized the
conversation throughout the evening,
although Humboldt himself was one Of
the most loQuacious men alive. This
wild-looking person displayed extraor-
dinary versatility and restessness in his
talk, which teemed with paradoxes and
dealt with an infinite variety OF subjects.
Humboldt listened to his brilliant ram
blings with absorbing interest, and, up.
on taking leave OF his host at a late hour
OF the night, expressed his gratitude for
the psychological experiment afforded
him, observing that "the radman had
amused him beyond all measure" :"
"How is that" exclaimed the doctor,
"you scarcely exchanged a word with
him all the evening"" 81 mean, Of
course" rejoined Humboldt 'that ex-
citable young man" "Iou are alto.
gether mistaken; the mailman was that
quiet, decorous old gentleman. "And
who, then, was the person took TO be
demented?" THAT person my good
friend, was VI. Honore do Balzac."

Attempts to Blow Up the Cars Train
Frustrated-Two Mines of Dynamite
Found Beneath the Railroad Track.
LONDON, Sept. "a well informed st.
Petersburg correspondent writes: a
mine was discovered in the Government
of Ekalerinoslav, Friday last, previous
TO the Cars journey from Tsarskalsclo
to livada, and another in the Govern
ment OF Taurida. one hundred and six
teen versts further on the railway TO
Limphoropal. 1t was found only the day
before the Emperor started. The latter
mine contained los pounds Of dynamite
packed in two cases. There was a wire
connected with the mine, but no battery
attached. Gen. LAWS Melekotf had
been exercising the greatest vilieance in
view OF the Emporers intended journey.
The details about the mine in Taurida
are from competent source.

Mr.. CoHKLING writes friend at
Washington that he does not believe
the New York Democracy will be divid-
ed in the Presidential contest and gives
it as his opinion that the Republicans
"will therefore have to put forth their
best efforts to be assured OF success
How Republican success is possible
with a united Democracy we fall to see
when the fact is considered that at the
last election held in New York, when
Cornell was elected Governor, the Dem.
ocratic vote, which was then divided,
exceeded the Republican vote by more
than $4,000, and considering the fact
that Mr.. Tlden carried the State by q
still larger majority. The Republicans
have only John Davenport to depend
upon, and that individuals operations
will be closely watched.

Many OF you know for sometime, l

that the accounts will not agree by
many millions OF dollars. Upon my
motion the Senate passed resolution

tors to examine and report upon Treas.
ury books &c. This committee
composed of Democrats and Re-
publicans, report that there are great
differences in the different accounts, and
that the statements made concerning
the crookedness OF the statements &C.,
were correct. Among other things
found by the committee was the follow
ing:

This shows that several years after the
net revenue was received and paid into
the Treasury, and reported to Congress
in official Finance Reports, it is resta-
ted in 1870 and the amount reduced ten
or twelve millions. How the amount OF
renuc paid into the Treasury and accept
ed by proper officers can be restated
years afterwards and largely reduced is
mystery not yet explained by the
Treasury Department.
